Seth Horrigan CS260 – Spring 2009

 Georgetown Experiment – 1954

 1966: the failure of machine translation  1970: the abandonment of connectionism  1971−75: DARPA's frustration with the Speech Understanding Research program at Carnegie Mellon University  1973: the large decrease in AI research in the United Kingdom in response to the Lighthill Report  1973−74: DARPA's cutbacks to academic AI research in general  1987: the collapse of the Lisp machine market  1988: the cancellation of new spending on AI by the Strategic Computing Initiative

 Limited domains  Tightly scripted responses

 Art, psychology, cultural studies, literary studies, drama  Aristotelian dramatic theory: spectacle, song, diction, thought, character and plot  Narrative agents, interactive agents, storytelling systems

 Theatre  Films  Participatory art

 Drama = Character + Story + Presentation  Drama(narrative)  Interactive drama(develop narrative)

 Personality, emotion, self-motivation, change, social relationships, illusion of life  Classical AI = mind, behavorial AI = person

 Embodied?  Environmentally influenced  Complex  Visual?

 Conversational agents  Branching

Discussion  In MMOs, especially MMORPGs, many individual participants create an interactive drama. Given such environments, is there a place for AI-driven interactive drama?  Given how long it takes to author such a short game, is it worthwhile?  Can you think of ways to reduce authoring time?  Attempts at choose-your-own path movies have been unsuccessful. Could interactive drama of this type be used to somehow make something better?  How would interactive drama work with non-self- absorbed characters?  Where, aside from games, could these ideas be applied?
