RE: [Haskell] AI Strike Force

Functional programming has long been recognized as an excellent paradigm for Artificial Intelligence. One reason why LISP is used for AI is (in my opinion, more important than functional programming) that ist's easy to work with "symbols" in LISP. How easy is this in Haskell? Does it matter that, in Haskell, every symbol must have a type that's known at compile time?
