The artificial Intelligence (AI) is what programs a computer player to actually play. AI can simulate what human players do like repairing buildings and training units.
In EotA AI allows the computers to pick a hero and fight, using abilities and buying and tempering items. The AI will also try to participate in map objectives like Verdant Falls' shrine battles and taking the mooontear in Kedge's Landing.
The AI can be enabled by setting slots to computers. When a player leaves the game, the AI will also take control over the player's hero. AI heroes will pool their earnings to human players. AI heroes on a team with human players will only award a maximum bounty of 200 gold and no crystal upon being killed.
