- client side AI, to improve the AI
- governor, to reduce micromanagement

IMHO if been done with care the governor could reuse a lot of the AI code.
And the AI is than just a governor with full control.

Also I liked the idea from Nicolas Brunel in his email from Fri, 2 Jun 2000
14:00:52. He proposes to layer the various AI tasks. I don't know much about
the current architecture of the AI, but it looks like a big opaque pile of
code for other people. As Nicolas has pointed out a layering design can
bring code which can be seperated and explicted interfaces.
