It wouldn't be difficult to randomize the bot with a noise filter to vary speed/accuracy and have it aim for center of mass, but slightly off center. Overshooting movement could help evade detection as well. Another tactic would be to let the player do most of the work, but correct it only when they would otherwise miss. Even letting them miss occasionally would throw off scrutiny. There are so many ways to hide it.
