Artificial life (commonly Alife or alife) is a field of study and an associated art form which examine systems related to life, its processes, and its evolution through simulations using computer models, robotics, and biochemistry. There are three main kinds of alife, named for their approaches: soft, from software; hard, from hardware; and wet, from biochemistry. Artificial life imitates traditional biology by trying to recreate biological phenomena. The term "artificial life" is often used to specifically refer to soft alife.

what is artificial life scientist are about to create?
Q. Just read national news that scientist are on verge of creating artificial life and would like information?
Asked by james h - Mon Aug 20 12:52:21 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. No, they've already done it! And, the little critters can digest just about any molecule with a carbon stuck on it and reproduce like crazy. They had to go to all metals seals in the containment vessel after they ate the polycon gaskets. There's nothing to worry about, though, because they've installed enough thermite to incinerator the entire facility in case they get out again :-)
