Classic artificial intelligence typically uses a set of steps to solve problems, it follows a path based on internal representations of events compared to the behavior-based approach.
A BBR often makes mistakes, repeats actions, and appears confused, but can also show the anthropomorphic quality of tenacity.
In the 1950s, W. Grey Walter, an English scientist with a background in neurological research, built a pair of vacuum tube-based robots that were exhibited at the 1951 Festival of Britain, and which have simple but effective behavior-based control systems.
He describes a series of thought experiments demonstrating how simply wired sensor/motor connections can result in some complex-appearing behaviors such as fear and love.
[4] The focus in this work is on developing simple generic mechanisms that result in coordinated group behavior, either implicitly or explicitly.
