This extensive report was written by Andrew Armstrong (blog), who attended a game AI workshop in the U.K. last week.

Here's the photo gallery of the Paris Game AI Workshop 2008, co-organized by LIP 6 and AiGameDev.com. There are shots of almost everyone, so be sure to take a look!

This is the third and final part of AiGameDev.com’s coverage of the research sessions relating to artificial intelligence at the GDC in Lyon. Be sure to read part 1 (about concurrent behaviors and Bayesian learning) and part 2 (about Embodied Communicational Agents).

GDC Lyon 2007 has just come to an end. It was the first of its kind in France, so it had little problems here and there, but overall I felt it was a success. With such “start-up” events, you get as much out of them as you put into them!

The Apply AI Innovations 2007 conference drew together programmers from the games industry, students and professors from academia. The round table featured about fifteen participants, represented primarily by programmers from Realtime Worlds and Rare, and researchers from Imperial College in London.

The conference on Artificial Intelligence in Interactive Digital Entertainment is underway. The proceedings are packed with useful information for game AI developers who want to stay up-to-date with the cutting edge. Below is a list of papers that can be found online for the posters track. Also see the AIIDE ‘07 Papers collected from the web.
