We can barely make cars drive themselves with pure vision. I don't think one of these bots is going to make it out of silver league in competitive overwatch. Maybe for a game like counterstrike where it's 100% hitscan you have a stronger argument for machine vision pulling the trigger on an AWP placed on a corner.

Complexity and pacing of gameplay is going to eventually have to be one hedge against AI. It's effectively a continuous captcha.

Such cheat is more of an aim assist, never intended be a full bot. And it would surely give you an advantage in overwatch, which i believe also has snipers/hitscan weapons in it.

I have no idea how well these things work right now, but they likely will get better over time.

Terrible bots can still spoil fun, for some of these people that is the only goal.
