An AI couldn’t beat humans at StarCraft, so it decided to cheat
www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/1004543/openai-gpt-cheat-starcraftEh? The StarCraft AI always “cheated” against the players. Watch a replay of a StarCraft 2 match. The harvesters always produced more minerals and gas than the human players did

This is AI playing the game as a regular player, so it doesn’t use the resource advantages given to the in-game AI on higher difficulty.
Oh so you never looked that closely at the numerical results
This is not about the AI integrated in StarCraft, these are external AI playing with the same rules as an human would.

You can boost efficiency using acceleration speed by clicking on targets like minerals and base repeatedly. Human can do a bit of it in the early game, Bot does it always with every worker.

I believe several of these bots run with APM limits; so they also skip some of these.
