If you're interested in Evolutionary Progamming, there's a great article in the latest Scientific American on Genetic Programming.

Also, check out fup's site ai-junkie, or AI Depot. Both excellent. AI Junkie has some fantastic beginner tutorials on genetic algorithms and neural nets. fup also has a great book out there called AI Techniques for Game Programming.

If you mean "AI propramming languages" like prolog or lisp it will be not very useful with games. If you want to use AI with C++ or other language there are somethings that will help you a lot. To know how to use pointers, and alocate memory dinamicaly (if you know C++ it will be simple), to know how to use data structures like trees and chained lists. The book "Artificial Inteligence A Modern Aproach" will be a very good begining. A* could be you first chalenge. Once you finish it begain with other things like Genetics, Neural Networks and etc...
