Interestingly, the basics of concealment in battle are shape, shine, shadow, silhouette, spacing, surface, and speed (or lack thereof) are all the same techniques the marines used to fool the AI.
The boxes and tree changed the silhouette and the somersaults changed the speed of movement.
So I guess we've been training soldiers to defeat Skynet all along.
