And more and more, research areas like psychology and even sociology are turning up in there too. I think I just wanted to say that AI wasn't Sci fi - There is GOFAI and there is quite cutting egde AI, it just focuses on different things to CI, although both overlap quite a bit.

My research suggests that Google combines up and down and tosses in side inputs as well. Stephen Arnold, October 26, 2008 CJ

CI has been around since the early 80's and AI since the early 50's. What gives? They are 2 different things, but It's not so clean-cut. One is top-bottom and one is bottom-up. CI is generally about problems that can't be solved as computational algorithms. One way of differentiating between them is that AI uses symbolic approaches and CI subsymbolic approaches. Then again...A.I is sometimes considered a part of CI, which deals with higher level cognitive functions. AI has its "grand challenges" and so does CI (The rat). I don't think that AI is sci fi, any more than CI is really. When it comes down to it, the work in both helps both, so it's all good. This is always a good resource for that debate: http://cogprints.org/5358/1/06-CIdef.pdf wow, the problem of defining AI and CI is not an easy one.
