There's tons of games where the AI cheats, but it's rarely kept secret from what I've experienced.

As for GalCiv

5) It is NOT cheating (unless you put the difficulty above Tough at which point yea, it's cheating, we're giving it money).

Pretty neat way they've made the whole AI thing, in my opinion. And especially the "It's multithreaded. That means while you are taking your turn, the game is multitasking within itself to generate a strategy." part.
I too have read what the developer said, and, with no disrespect intended to him and his team, I will believe what I have experienced before I believe a statement from the developer, who has reason to want people to believe their incredible AI doesn't cheat.
