No game as complex as dominions is going to have an AI with no weaknesses, and putting one in MP is just asking people to beat it up for its riches.
I fully agree with you, I would even say no game is going to have a perfect AI impossible to beat without any kind of chat anytime soon. Complex video games that is. (Chess and other games having good enough AIs)

As a side note, if I were cynical, I would say most games mainly played in SP are not featuring state of the art AIs. Still, I hope it will NOT be the same with Dominions, and even now I tend to believe the AI is above average, when you look at that average. So I am feeling confident about the future of this AI.
