	Let's say Human has relatively weak air defence but ironclad antitank defence. KAI will start building a group of bombers while putting a mission together to take the anti-air out - its attack force, balanced against the defenses there will target the anti air as highest priority and if successful will bomb the base. Turn the tables on this scenario and KAI will start building heavy tanks while planning how to eradicate the weaker antitank defence. (Objectives have not been implemented yet, although KAI will try to balance its units against the enemy forces in the ~~unreleased~~ test build.)

	While the AI is in an early stage, there are many developments which give a hint of the immense promise KAI has. The most impressive, yet one of the simpler, is KAI's ability to think in chokepoints. According to Krogothe, this took five to ten minutes 'under the current framework', so whatever the framework is, it is certainly impressive.

KAI does show great promise in testing, and v0.11 is a worthy opponent even with the relatively high probability of crashes. It should be noted that KAI's prowess is largely down to maphack functionality; the AI will always know where your units and structures are, and does not need to scout like a human does. KAI was always planned to have this trait.
