This conference talk explores swarm intelligence algorithms as an alternative approach to AI beyond the current focus on LLMs. Dive into nature-inspired computational methods with Frances Buontempo at Meeting C++ 2024, where she demonstrates the implementation of the "cat swarm algorithm" as a practical example. Learn how these algorithms create emergent swarm intelligence and provide foundational understanding of AI principles. The presentation covers practical C++ skills including random number generation, basics of the SFML graphics library, and techniques for testing code with random elements. Gain insights into various random distributions in action and discover a fascinating new algorithmic domain to enhance your coding repertoire. The 52-minute talk offers both theoretical understanding and practical implementation techniques for developers interested in expanding their AI toolkit beyond mainstream approaches.
