I did not mean, that it is not possible to do an AI in Ada. And of
course
you will benefit from all the strong points of Ada, when it comes to
AI.
This was just an example. My point is, that you should take a tool,
which
allows you to focus on your task at hand.

In other words - you can also do a multi-threading in Lisp, right? But
when it comes to the real-time programming it is not just a matter of
garbage collector, that we will do the job in Ada.
