Ultimately real AI is likely going to be emulating a nervous
system. You arn't going to program knowledge into the AI, your
going to create a program that can learn. Basically its going
to be an interpreter that runs a nervous system. For this purpose
LISP or other "AI languages" would be worse than useless. You'll
want C,C++ or assembly, anything else is just going to get in the
way and slow things down.
How you assemble the "brain" running on top of the low level code,
thats the real challenge.
