That would have to be one heck of a virtual environment to fool the AI.
Done well, this would obviously be the best way to create and ensure you
have a friendly AI. Hmm, maybe we are all just virtual fodder for an AI
development project / production line (gee, what a happy thought).

The ability to vastly slow down the AI's speed (without it knowing) I
believe is essential for later stages. Just seems like a darn handy
capability to have, should you need it.
