Starting to get into go and really enjoying it. I am a programmer and think I would have same fun and learn more about the game by designing an AI.

Is there any server or native program which is easy to interface with or designed specifically for this? A C/C++ API would be great. What are other people doing interface wise?

I've searched but haven't found any resources yet. It has been hard since GO is the name of a programming language and CS:GO is one of the most popular online games.

For running on KGS...

For searching, try "go game". Usually works to make the search more useful.

I suggest getting on KGS and looking at the "Computer Go" room. I think there's more information there.

I was about to add this as well...

Unfortunately the english page has fallen out of being updated but you can try Google translate on the Japanese version which is being kept up to date. It was just announced Cho Chikun would play winner of next UEC tournament.

If you have an AI ready that implement GTP as interface, you can use http://senseis.xmp.net/?Gogui to watch the moves graphically (as GoGui "speaks" GTP).
