Scratch

Sure you can. AI is something that works at several different levels. A simple level of (built-in) AI can be reached by using scripts and variables to store both behaviours of "intelligent" agents and things to be learned by them. A complex level of AI does instead require the possibility of storing a lot (and not pre-determined) amount of learned information. To do this you need arrays/lists and input/output to files. So... you have just to go and download the beatiful Jens' ListAndFiles hack (http://www.chirp.scratchr.org/blog/)

This project has some racing AI, check it out!

What kind of learning were you thinking of deatheater? As I said, a complex one could need arrays (that I guess are coming with the next version, as the translation table now contains strings such as "insert %s at %i of %L" and others). But if you explaing the sort of learning you need, it may be possible to get it by just using a few variables.

In order to create this, you will need:

A random action generator
A means of telling whether a sequence of actions was successful
A means of "saving"  a sequence of succesful actions.

There was a nice AI simulator in an old robotics book I used to read, in which you simulated the learning AI of a robot "rabbit" trying to avoid a dumb robot "fox" using a pack of cards as the programmig and storage... wonder if I can remember it fully..

I see what you mean...maybe when it did the right action, it would store it as one BIG number variable, and when the time was right to do the action, it would read the instructions in the number with http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Mayhem/99866 , and it would repeat, getting smarter as it goes.

Ok I just uploaded it, but its pretty simple so odn't complain    Heres the link: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/F18/208912

no offence but the second one isn't learning.

Yes, it doesnt learn, it just knows what to do when, and then attacks you when you attack it, or you get to close. Artificial intelligence doesn't exactly mean it learns i believe, but that it has the ability to respond to its surroundings.

yes but the name of this topic, can u program a learning ai in scratch 

I am going to try and program a learning A1 in scratch. Lets see if I can.

It is a car that learns to drive around a track.

I am going for a person that avoids you and the walls in a semi maze.
