This is my second account , from the past 10 games I've seen a plethora of bot accounts that do not have normal behavior patterns. Walking straight into towers to chase enemies. Casting their ult as soon as it becomes available. Overly aggressive playing, these are very obviously not real people and drop the enjoyment of the game mode incredibly.
The only way to deal with them is to report them and/or send in a ticket to Support, unfortunately. I'm definitely aware of the bot accounts in ARAMs, it's one of the hardest parts about playing pre-level 30 ARAMs, as you said. Having Morgana walk up and try to auto attack Vayne to death and chasing her under tower until she's 0/10 with the exact same build path as the other bots certainly ruins the fun for a lot of players. The worst part about it all, in my opinion, is these bots are going to be sold to players for real monetary value and will subsequently be banned once it's discovered they were leveled through botting. Hopefully there's a solution the community can come up with to prevent others from having to deal with these problems, as it's demoralizing to actual players and probably has a pretty real effect on the player-base sticking around.

Huge spam of obvious ARAM accounts on low level ARAM games.
You can tell who the new players are and who the bots are pretty easily. The new players may turret dive a few times, but they won't do it all game. The bots however, will usually turret dive / 1v5 all game every time they respawn.
The only exception is the 'AFK bots' or 'CS bots' as I like to call them. They are too passive to the point they're not even really playing the game, they'll stand behind allies/turret, and either cs or move back and forth doing nothing, and when the enemy team goes in, or your team goes in, they won't react whatsoever at any time. They end with extremely low damage dealt like 1000 when everyone else on your team has 20K+ damage to champions, because they're not even using skills or attacking enemy champions for a majority of the game. They won't feed hard like the other bots, but they are just as bad because it's basically an AFK except stealing your cs.
ARAM as a whole needs a lot of work, low level is flooded with bots, and when you start getting to level 30/ or a good ARAM mmr, you start seeing only ARAM accounts, which forces me to make a new account and deal with the bots again, because having the same OP 20-30 ARAM champs in every game over and over just completely ruins the fun of randomness for me.
simple don't play aram Directly show riot that the game is losing support, so either they will fix it or they will gut it and put it on rotating game mode
Play it as if you were playing PvE or a single player campaign mode in another game with and against some AI. I played a fair bit of intermediate coop vs ai games on Twisted Treeline with bots account on my team against riot bots and it was enjoyable in its own way. I understand you obviously would rather play PvP, but PvE can be fun too. And you'll quickly play against real ppl if you win your games, which shouldn't be too hard.
Yes yes yes and yes. There is nothing that can be done though because they aren't toxic and could just be a bad player that doesn't know how to communicate. This has been an issue five-ever.
