DON'T FORGET TO BUDGET FOR THE A.I. GUY!

I'm endlessly entertained by the continuing stream of news related to the Natal Milo concept. The latest information relates to the news that Peter Molyneux, of Lionhead Studios, which is developing the project, is shopping for an Artificial Intelligence specialist to help work on the illusion that is the "Milo" character - in other words, to improve on his abilities to react and respond like a real human being.

Inevitably, I would think, as this technology develops and is incorporated into this new entertainment genre, the AI researcher could become as indispensable as the scriptwriter.
