AI has many problems and needs to be improved

my dissatisfaction with ver 2.5 AI
1. They don't attack an enemy city by air units.
(AI needs to recognize an effectiveness of fighters or cruise missiles.)
2. They don't attack an enemy ships by triremes or caravels.
(At least ships carrying expensive cargo or fragile units who are on the coast should be attacked.)
3. In the first place, they are less aggressive than ver 2.3 AI because they are very afraid of making their city empty.
(We could easily fish ver 2.3 AI. So they were idiot of course. But ver 2.5 AI are timid and also idiot.)
4. They think nothing but producing city defenders and ignore some useful buildings. (library, harbor,market,temple and so on)
5. Because of too many city defenders, their cities soon suffer from lack of production point.
(They should disband unnecessary units.)
6. Ignoring Freeciv help ("need an escort"), they independently operate artillery (catapult, cannon and artillery).
7. They don't understand the importance of terrain defense bonus. So their units land at flat terrain instead of hills or mountains.
When will AI satisfy us? How long should I wait?
Do you plan to improve them?
