Any plans to update the Co-op bot AI?

I'm just curious about this. The existence of scripting programs should be proof of concept that bots could be much more skilled than they are. It just doesn't make sense why they are still so easy. There are even some really glaring bugs with the Bot AI, such as Fizz going AFK for 25 minutes or Taric glitching out and standing completely still while his opponents beat him up. Also it would be great if bots would be more suspicious of following people into bushes, and perhaps if they would ward.

My dude, the existence of DOOOOOM BOTS in THEIR OWN game is proof they could do better lol.

There is no money in improving co-op AI, so you can more or less count on it not happening, sadly.

Well, doom bots aren't better AI, they are the same AI with overpowered kits : /

I want to see an AI that learns and improves by playing against itself, like was made for DOTA, only this one learns from players, too.

This would be awesome! If something gets a bot killed it should be ready to avoid it the next time!

It's kind of funny that reworks break the bots but it's kinda sad that they haven't bothered to make a harder level of them with the resources and time. especially after remaking how they can get even more money from players (gotta get all those skin colors m i rite?!) I mean I just played an AI game where Sion Bot wasn't seen at all. Come to the end and he's standing at the fountain, and will cast an ability if you get close enough. And seeing where their current priorities lie outside of the game, well... I can see WHY they have an abundance of design ideas, too many art students working for them
