Really? I've found quite the opposite: that the AI is good at gunning for VP provinces. Although I do favor "capitals as VP" victory conditions, partly because it does encourage the AI to aim for your capital.

Usually, I find that "half the number of world VP, +/- 1" makes for the correct amount to end the game at about the right time.
