SNePS, a simultaneously a logic-based, frame-based, and network-based knowledge representation, reasoning, and acting system.
Watson, a question answering system being developed by IBM capable of playing the Jeopardy! gameshow.

Cog, a robot developed by MIT to study theories of cognitive science and artificial intelligence, now discontinued.
Grand Challenge 5 – Architecture of Brain and Mind, a UK attempt to understand and model natural intelligence at various levels of abstraction, demonstrating results in a succession of increasingly sophisticated working robots.

AIML, an XML dialect for creating natural language software agents.
A.L.I.C.E., an award-winning natural language processing chatterbot.
ELIZA, a famous 1966 computer program by Joseph Weizenbaum, which parodied person-centered therapy.
InfoTame, a text analysis search engine originally developed by the KGB for sorting communications intercepts.

KAR-Talk, a chatterbot by I.-A.Industrie.
KAR Intelligent Computer, an artificial intelligence software included in the CEPC 230 KAR's computer from Continental Edison.
PARRY, another early famous chatterbot, written in 1972 by Kenneth Colby, attempting to simulate a paranoid schizophrenic.

SHRDLU, an early natural language processing computer program developed by Terry Winograd at MIT from 1968 to 1970.
START, the world's first web-based question answering system, developed at the MIT CSAIL.
SYSTRAN, a machine translation technology by a company of the same name, used by Yahoo!, AltaVista and Google, among others.
Texai, an open source project to create artificial intelligence, starting with a bootstrap English dialog system that intelligently acquires knowledge and behaviors.

O-Plan, a project to provide a modular and flexible planning and control system using AI, at AIAI, University of Edinburgh.

Kreator, an optimization problem solving software by Intelligentics that uses A.I. techniques.
OpenAIR, a routing and communication protocol based on a publish-subscribe architecture, built especially for A.I. research.
SEAS (Synthetic Environment for Analysis and Simulations), a model of the real world used by Homeland security and the US Defense Department that uses simulation and AI to predict and evaluate future events and courses of action.^[2]
