[The Daily Galaxy - Great Discoveries Channel -Your Daily Dose of Awe: Science, Space, Tech] The New Search for ET: Seeking Out Artificial Intelligence and ...: SETI's chief astronomer, Seth Shostak, says that "artificially intelligent alien life would be likely to migrate to places where both matter and energy ”” the only things he says would be of interest to the machine-based life ”” would be in plentiful supply. That means the SETI hunt may need to focus its attentions near hot, young stars or even near the centers of galaxies."

[The Daily Galaxy - Great Discoveries Channel -Your Daily Dose of Awe: Science, Space, Tech] New Tech: Artificial Life Forms Created that Evolve Intelligence: in a computer world called Avida, and replicate using strings of coded computer instructions instead of DNA, they are similar to real life microbes: they compete with each other for resources, replicate, mutate, and eventually evolve to become artificially intelligent life forms. Unlike real-life Darwinian microbes, their evolution can be stopped at any time, reversed, repeated, and the precise sequence of mutations that led to the new trait can be dissected. 

[American Scientist Online] Artificial Life Forms Evolve Basic Intelligence » American Scientist: Similar to microbes, Avidians take up very little space, have short generation times, and can evolve new traits to out-compete their rivals. Unlike microbes, their evolution can be stopped at any time, reversed, repeated, and the precise sequence of mutations that led to the new trait can be dissected.

[io9] The extraterrestrial life that we're looking for might be ...: Biological alien life could be almost unrecognizable to us, but at least they would have to think in a way that's governed by the rules of biochemistry, just like us. Thinking machines, on the other hand, could have cognitive processes that are almost entirely incomprehensible to us, which would make the job of finding and understanding a potential alien radio signal that much more difficult.

[Peace Jaway] BBC News - Alien hunters 'should look for artificial intelligence ...: Both Dr Shostak and Dr Elliott concede that finding and decoding any eventual message from such alien thinking machines may prove more difficult than in the "biological" case, but the idea does provide new directions to look.

[Gyrovague's Raves] Artificial life forms evolve basic intelligence « Gyrovague's Raves: But in many ways they are similar to real life: they compete with each other for resources, replicate, mutate, and evolve. They - or things like them - might eventually evolve to become artificially intelligent life forms.
