Ask HN: Best books on AI?
If you are developing AI for games, then Programming Game AI By Example by Mat Buckland are one of the best book for that : https://www.amazon.com/Programming-Example-Wordware-Develope...
⬐ LyutDI can also vouch for this, it's a great introduction to AI in Games, however it is just an introduction as the topic is very broad.

0AD Pathfinder Design [pdf]
I really recommend http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Example-Wordware-Developer.... I don't recall if it contained a segment of Behaviour Trees at this moment, but read up on BTs and replace any section containing FSM with that.
⬐ doucheReally an excellent book. I've been through a bunch, but I think that is still the best general-purpose, entry-level game AI book on the market.

Ask HN: Where to start on creating AI for games?
I took a course on AI at University. The course had a lot of projects around video games. I liked the book we used:http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Example-Wordware-Developer...
Our final project was super cool. We got into groups. Then each group modified the AI of the soccer team in the book. Then we had a tournament to see who's team was the best. Winning the tournament was one of my prouder moments at school.

How does this look?http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Game-Example-Mat-Buckland/...
It's based on C++, and covers state machines, fuzzy logic, etc. It's a little old so there is no mention of behavior trees, but it does cover goal-driven behavior and is a great introduction to most techniques in AI.
