I am an unironic chairman Shen Ji Yang stan

Yang is decent, fantastic production, but poor econ and effic late game. Uni just has unbeatable perks and minimal drawbacks that can be negated pretty easily (hunter seeker algorithms?). The main issue is that Uni makes the game too easy. Hive is an excellent ai opponent though - the ai can actually play them quite well, unlike Lal or Morgan.

Hive, Spartan and Believers always seemed like the most capable AI.

Yeah, infrequently Gaia goes wild and snowballs but otherwise those three tend to do well, Spartan and believer do very well in the early game at least.
