A classic but I'm not quite sure why it was posted? Initially thought they'd made the text available online, which would be cool. But alas.
Is the Google Code or design-a-cover thing the actual news here?

and why is it getting so many upvotes? Extending this approach, if anyone is looking for free karma, just post separate links to all the classic CS books, without any comments or added explanation (3 separate submissions for the TAOCP Knuth books ;-)). Lots of karma for the taking ;-)
now that this is on the front page, here is something interesting. There's a 1000 $ prize for designing a cover for the third edition (see top right hand corner of teh page). The cover of the first two editions are very dense with references to AI history. If I could draw worth a damn I would have taken a shot at it.
Most of the algorithms I've tested seem pretty slow. Although the linked examples are for learning.
From my research AI seems to be primarily LISP in academia and C in production.
Most AI algorithms have clearly defined segments that are very CPU intensive, by only using C in those areas I get the optimal balance of development speed and execution speed.
