Artificial Intelligence Today

We discuss the application of behavioural architectures, in the robotic sense, to virtual agents. ‘Virtual Teletubbies’ are used as an example of the issues involved. we conclude that the use of such architectures has implications for the whole style in which a virtual world is modelled.
