Locked in the dogma

What a pity!!!
Sad to say but a robot is also a vehicle.
Without a mind that program it, it will never do anything.

Still spouting bullshit and crap.

Evolutionary robotics uses population-based artificial evolution (fogel-1966, holland-1975) to evolve autonomous robot controllers (i.e. robot brains) and sometimes robot morphologies (i.e. robot bodies)(lipson-n-2000). Generally, the robots are evolved to perform tasks requiring some level of intelligence, for example moving around in an environment without running into things.

The process of controller evolution consists of repeating cycles of controller fitness testing and selection that are roughly analogous generations in natural evolution. Evolution is initialized by creating a population of randomly configured robots (or robot controllers). During each subsequent cycle, or generation, each of the robot controllers competes in an environment to perform the task for which the robots are being evolved. This process involves placing each controller into a robot and then allowing the robot to interact with its environment for a period of time. Following this, each controller’s performance is evaluated using a fitness selection function (objective function) that measures how well the task was performed. The controllers in the better performing robots are selected, altered and propagated in a repeating process that mimics natural evolution. The alteration process is also inspired by natural evolution and may include mutation and trading of genetic material. Cycles are repeated for many generations to train populations of robot controllers to perform a given task.
