    AI didn’t decide anything. The humans failed to properly define the rules, and their translation model took the path most likely to succeed.

    If it had been told not to use human created bots to win, it would probably have reverse engineered the game, found an exploit, and leveraged that instead. Because using the human interface to play/win the game is not the most efficient or dependable or easy to figure out method.
