Embedding an intelligent assistant into real-time strategy.

I recently finished my Ph.D. dissertation work in building intelligent agents with greater conversational capabilities. In performing this work I embedded an intelligent assistant into a Stratagus, an open-source real-time strategy game. The result was an interface that allowed me to give commands, objectives, questions and so forth to an artificial intelligence entity that would then perform all of the micro-managing within the game. I have a video demonstration avaialble at http://blog.assistiveintelligence.com/2006/06/demonstration-available.html and would love to have feedback on the technology. Please keep in mind that this particular demonstration was to show the conversational capabilities and not how much cooler the game could be. therefore, there is disagreement and negotiation, as well as the agent not knowing how to perform certain actions in an effort to demonstrate a more diverse conversation. What do you guys think about the demo? What other genre's of games could this technology apply to?

Amazing. You've done some really awesome work. Working for someone else might pay the bills but I think the potential for greater gain would be to turn this into a product.
