This paper attempts to define Behavior-Based Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a new approach to the study of Intelligence. It distinguishes this approach from the traditional Knowledge-Based approach in terms of the questions studied, the solutions adopted and the criteria used for success. It does not limit Behavior-Based AI to the study of robots, but rather presents it as a general approach for building autonomous systems that have to deed with multiple, changing goals in a dynamic, unpredictable environment.
