- charlesju 18y agoCool! Reminds me of Prolog.
- jedc 18y agoAwesome! Back in college I made a Matlab program that used Genetic Algorithms to find the optimal flight path for spacecraft that had to do "fly-by"'s of particular planets at particular times. It was complicated, but a lot of fun. (Unfortunately haven't needed to do anything with it since.)
- jdoliner 18y agoI'm presently doing research on Genetic Programming. I'm just an undergrad but I've read a fair amount on the subject and feel that I basically understand it at this point. However my understanding is largely academic and I'm curious as to how marketable the ideas are. Since YC is exactly the crowd that I should ask to find this out, I'm asking. Particularly has anyone used any sort of an evolutionary solution in their product, considered it? If the later why did you decide against it? Has anyone heard of it or is it a new idea? Most important question, who's intrigued and sees potential? Because I do.

- greg 18y agoI'm working on something for weebly.com that uses a genetic algorithm and even some genetic programming. If anyone here is interested in applications of GP, please get in touch. Email greg at startup-name-dot-com.

- vizard 18y agoIsnt GP patented? That will probably kill off any commercial applications.
