Artificial intelligence kicks ass.

UT Austin played in the international Robocup competition last month. It's a soccer competition played by Sony Aibos which are controlled by nothing but their own artificial intelligence programs. There is no outside control. Check out the article, then check out the video linked in the middle... or just click here:

It's 19 megs, 2 minutes long, and in QuickTime.

Go Horns!
