I do research in academia in genetic programming and other evolutionary algorithms. Some theory, some applications especially in graphics/design/music.
Like other commenters, I hope OP will elaborate on the question and/or the responses.
I want to see, how alive the field really is. This question here is just a (biased) sampling.
Is any member of this community able and willing to tell the whole world, what AI related work he is doing?
A concrete examples, like "I am with the Google translator team" or "I, alone, have done this and this" - are very welcome.
