Is AI behaving properly?

After watching Kabam Jax in Twitch at the Kabam chanel, he said that they watch the content that people uploads at youtube, so I thought, why Kabams still does say that the AI works as intended if it does not?
Lagacy is the best example of this, I watched him for hours while he was doing both Gauntlet and EoP, and he complained, as everybody complains about the AI behaviour, because for the last year, maybe year and half, it has behaved way different, randomly switches from offensive, to passive, to only blocking, to only throwing random heavys, to not throwing specials, to throwing them randomly, to intercept, etc etc etc, and as I said, if you really watch Lags streams, you will notice it.
I just want to know why Kabam acts like it doesnt, personally I have one possible reason that is that they dont wanna work on it even if its not working properly, why? Probably because they want to work on other stuff or they already are and they dont want to invest on more both stuff and staff.
Personally I just want some transparency and Ill ask everybody, do you guys feel like the AI is way different from a year ago or maybe it is just me?

Most of us have enough experience to know that talking about AI is a lost cause since they never ever agree to it
They either just ignore the threads or flat-out lie about it
The purpose: to keep the game interesting.
The earliest thing I saw was the offense speed changes.
When I began, you had one offense speed in the fight (Quaking was sooooooo easy).
Later, they could change speed, midfight, but only 1-2 changes per fight.
Now, they change speed constantly.
The speed boost in the middle of a dash attack is why we miss blocks so much.
And the dashing. Dear god, the dashing. I have to dex significantly more on specials and regular dash ins than before. Yet my own Sabretooth can't span the entire screen on SP1, and I can't dash in far enough to clip a defender that is dashing back.
It can be frustrating.
Quake and Ghost are completely unusable.
Parry is just a dream to achieve.
It takes ages to bait sp1 or sp2.
Defender is pro (or god) in using dexterity and parry now.
You changed it because it became too easy for experienced players to play so you had to make it harder?
Something changed in a patch and you have no time to work on it?
Something changed and you have better stuff to do?
I wanna know the truth, maybe you even changed it so we have to pay to get revives and heals because you need more money, that would be understandable aswell since this a company and it exists to earn money, but please, give the players some info about this.
I would say everybody notices that AI is not the same or it is not working as it should, Im sure that there are people that thinks they are becoming worse at the game cause the AI is making them lose more than they used to, so please, dont say that this isnt an issue or a bug or AI didnt change, just be honest this time.
Play the same fight 6-10 times (Restart) and eventually the AI will Play normally, also for the next fights. Try it.
sometimes I think to myself, that what we players call mistakes are programmed and make the difference whether the game makes a lot or a little profit. They are intentionally programmed errors that occur so randomly that no intention can be identified. That could be the reason why they don't handle the bugs.
Kabam has zero idea what they are doing and will continue to sweep it under the rug...cause that's what they do.
"Yeah, we messed up, sorry fam, we will try to do it better next time"
Thats all I really want, and maybe more Kabam people on forums, I know game companies way more smaller than this with waaaay more people that work for them in forums and support
She was at 2 bars of power and refusing to throw a special despite me spending what felt like 20 minutes dashing in and out and leaving myself open trying to bait it out.
So I waited until she was holding block solidly then dashed in to block hit her… she shallow evaded and intercepted me with sp2 lol.
Fun times.
THIS GAME IS A JOKE!!!
I would love if someone from Kabam was courageous enough to come on forum and address it but they like to not be accountable.
They like to send out surveys like they care about what the community thinks but never fixes anything.
