There was a article years ago about the Deus Ex team trying to find tune their AI. They found that a dumber AI actually worked better for player enjoyment. Players would frequently think the AI cheated when they got flanked and hasn't seen the enemy move to their flank. The human players just ended up doing low fun strategies like using hall ways or other bottle necks to wait for the AI to attack. Will try to find the article later. Edit: So apparently it was not from Deus Ex, but from someone anonymous.
