  There’s SmashBot in Melee- the bigger problem is probably trying to get it to learn how to play the entire roster and how to deal with matchups.

• what's up with all the comparisons to NFTs??

  More types of both will surely be developed in the future too, which is a big problem for assumptions about the limits "of AI" based only on our current models. We've seen this in other spaces too -- besides Deep Blue and AlphaGO turning people's expectations on their heads, smashbot for Super Smash Bros Melee was literally inspired by a bet that the game was too complex and required enough human "intuition" for an AI to ever compete with tournament-ranked players.

• Valve bans 40k accounts after laying a trap for cheaters in Dota 2

  There are bots for fighting games like the Rzr Infiltration bot for SFV and Smashbot for SSBM[1] which are good enough to take games off pro players. I'm not aware of it being abused at scale. Most people cheating in shooters or mobas aren't using full game-playing agents. They're using aimbots/skillshot scripts where you still need to move around and interact with stuff. Similarly, cheating in fighting games is typically done with button macros, so there's constant discussion on controller legality. However, button macros will only get you so far in fighting games, while an aimbot can get you close to the top of the ladder if undetected.

• Is it possible to datamine/reverse engineer the SSBU ROM to see the source code the CPUs use? Feels like it might be really helpful in not-obvious ways

  If you're interested in this stuff as a more academic question, have you seen the tasbot for melee, which is a genuine attempt at an optimal AI? The high level flowchart for that is pretty transparent: parry everything the opponent does, then whenever they're in enough lag for you to shine them, do a frame perfect waveshine 0-death. But there's more going on behind the scenes, and this is a bot which openly abuses it's nonhuman abilities to try to compete against top level players. It's open source, take a look! https://github.com/altf4/SmashBot
