Calahan is altering spells in a way that keeps their effects intact, but makes them more or less attractive to the AI. For example using nextspell commands to hide effects from the AI so it thinks the spells doesn't do anything.

This way it is possible to limit the amount of spells the AI chooses from to those that are the most generally useful. The result being a much more effective AI in practice.

Initial tests have been quite successful as I understood it, I believe we can expect this mod to become very popular when finished.
