Bayesian techniques are neither AI nor new. See
<http://citeseer.nj.nec.com/sahami98bayesian.html> and
<http://citeseer.nj.nec.com/androutsopoulos00learning.html>, among
others.
Moreover, while there may be client-side programs which implement
these techniques, and there may be prototype server-side programs
which implement these techniques, I am not aware of any more
production-oriented tools which are available to implement these
kinds of techniques.
