So how strong should the AI Bots be allowed to be?

Pretty happy now that we know from the Portal specs that the AI bots are not going to be like quiet static mannequins we just start to get used to knowing how to fool around as 'predictable' robots. Dont know yet if we can only grade their strength into 3 distinct levels, or if we will have a more fluid sliding scale to set this on. We also need to figure out if the bots could be changed on their strength ability via our logic coded scripts for the server during the gameplay and depending on event/scores in the game round? Aka they could then somehow be utilized to balance out if the humans on one team appear skill-stacked versus the other team side humans. Another potential feature would be that AI bots could be triggered by the script to increase their strength against specific individuals, if aka enemy human k/d goes above 4:1 then AI bot could turn up the Terminator power against such select enemies.
Actually also a question for us to figure out?
How much do we accept to be 'owned' by a strong AI bot before we throw the controller/mouse up on the wall in despair?
1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, more???
