Abstract :
The animat path to artificial intelligence (AI), a bottom-up approach to creating intelligent systems, is described. Using this approach, artificial creatures or agents animats are constructed in an environment. They begin simply and are gradually made more and more complex, exhibiting more and more complex behaviors at each step. The goals and accomplishments of five research projects incorporating the animat path to AI methodology are reviewed.<>
