My question is quite simple.What does it take to create a simple AI interface or a more complex one?Recently it started growing on me so i begin searching the whole thing, but i still have a very long way to go.What does it take to do it?What kind of programming language?Is that all you need?

It needs to learn by itself without being told to. Robotics doesn't have anything close to AI for the most part unfortunately so unless your looking at MIT machine learning don't bother looking to robotics for AI. Look at Deep Neural Nets.

its called a deep neural net

a self-learning algorithm that builds on itself

nvidia used it for their drive PX system for cars that uses deep learning to recognize objects

AI is a large field of study in Computer Science (and other disciplines) and includes a lot of topics. So what you need to know will likely depend on what you're trying to do. It might be good to start with a general introduction to AI as it will introduce you to a variety of topics and then you can get more specific as you start to understand what topics you need to focus on. You have plenty of choice when it comes to what programming language you use because the concepts and algorithms used in AI are language agnostic.

Here are some resources for getting started with AI
