It's a known limitation. right now AI learns from programmers, and whatever you can do, they can be taught.

Nobody is arguing that the current generation of AI programs itself. I never said that. Unless someone else jumped into this thread when I wasn't lookin, nobody ever proposed that argument.
Ideally in the future AI WILL program itself, at which point it will be actual "intelligence." Right now, the fundamental flaw in AI is that it CAN'T program itself, hence the overall inferiority to human play in terms of problem solving and creative thinking. I'm not saying a Bot can't beat a human or be better than your average player, I'm saying that in terms of reasoning ability, problem solving and creative solutions AI is incapable of matching a human.
It's an incredibly simple argument to follow - I'm not sure why there's such a huge miscommunication here. Let's go real slow:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is currently incapable of programming itself on the fly. Consequently, AI is currently incapable of truly reacting to problems in an "intelligent" manner and is also incapable of solving problems or creating solutions to problems with which it has not already received progamming. Stated another way, AI can't think "creatively" and it can't "learn." Conversely, Human Intelligence (HI) is capable of adjusting and reacting to problems and creatively creating solutions to which it has not previously been given the answer or solution. Thus, HI is able to do something AI cannot - learn, "think" creatively, and solve problems to which it has not been previously given a solution.
That's not debate, that's simply fact. There's nothing to argue about. Now if you think playing a bot is as fun or more fun, that's your opinion and you're entitled to it and I've got no problem with that. Personally, based on the argument above MY opinion is that HI offers more of a challenging environment as I associate challenging play with changing, dynamic play that I cannot ever predict.
