@Stephen, lol! The subject is a bit crazy especially on randomness and hollywood have made it worse by making AI look so easy. Here's an example as in game development : Suppose you want your code to generate random objects, doing different things at different velocities and acceleration. Then the objects must also appear in different positions, different animations and different collison detections too. Those are just 6 "intelligences ". The seed is what random number generators use but you have to be careful where you do the Seeding. I'll know the answer in a few weeks/months time.... :-) Rgds.

I wonder what will happen after months or a year to these AI characters...
