…and are those made with NON-AI !!!
If only with RNG I can understand…
Considering they predate the existence of AI, one would think CR’s aren’t AI-genned.
That being said, it’s possible Blizz updated their code to incorporate an AI into this game at some point for the express purpose of “picking” (generating) CR builds. I’d still doubt that though, since the overall quality (or lack thereof) has been rather consistent since the mode’s inception; builds are either coherent, and therefore stupidly easy, or incoherent, and therefore stupidly irritating. Do note that “irritating” does not equate to “difficult” but rather it just means you have to die your way to victory more often than not, which imo is vexing. “Glass cannon” is one thing, but often I find these builds are dying to a stiff breeze or an idle glance.
I still maintain the average joe playing this game doesn’t really play “super cereal” and that these builds are indeed from players who just kind of “wing it” - but the only ones who’d know for sure, are blizz employees themselves.
I think newcomers are just trying horribly cobbled builds without even looking up a guide. Also, there are some people who exclusively try to get in that Challenge Rift pool by running minimal Legendary powers at low tier clears. So no, I don’t think there’s an involvement of A.I like you suspected.
