[Development Gone Downhill?]

It you think about it, improving the AI would require a lot of focus and commitment right now, and the Devs are already focusing on other projects and events.  So they are probably too focused on other things in order to improve the AI.  If they did consider improving the AI, it would still take awhile before it gets released.  Since they would probably have to run multiple tests in order to make sure that the AI isn't bugged or anything.
