The University of Iowa is developing a virtual soldier with AI.

"Santos, an intelligent avatar with realistic biomechanical abilities, functions in a powerful human modeling and simulation environment...Santos was built from the ground up, using state-of-the-art technologies, and continues to grow in dynamic capabilities and intelligent behaviors through integration of AI, design optimization, and physics-based modeling."

A video about Santos, from the Discovery Channel can be found here:
