Is it cheating to use computer vision bots?

Question

Neural networks

Let's say I'm too lazy to play cs:go. Watching the game on the stream is not right, because. there is no direct influence of the beholder on the game process.
And let's say I wrote a bot, the bot has computer vision, emulation of keystrokes and mouse movement. Everything is shorter than in humans. He, like an ordinary person, recognizes the image of the enemy and shoots at him.
Is this cheating or not?

Answer 1

Is this cheating or not?

Yes.
But you can become a "good player" if you don't "go too far" in terms of professionalism in relation to the total mass of players on the server.

Answer 2

To win in such games, two components are needed: reaction and strategy (planning).
Reaction in most people >200ms ( https://www.humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime). This is a reaction to a change in contrasting colors and a click in any position. In a shooter, you need to recognize a player who can blend into the background, and also aim. Feel free to multiply by two more. For a computer, the response can be 10ms. Aiming will always be perfectly accurate.
strategy . Well, try to beat the computer in chess, it is in the same conditions as you.

Answer 3

I personally mean by cheating - the use of "undocumented" and not available for other features of the game, such as endless money, look through walls, know the hidden parameters of opponents, etc.
If the bot is placed in the same conditions as all the players, then no cheating.
although I have not heard of any approved classification of what cheating is.

Answer 4

It is necessary to look at the license agreement of this game, but the use of any third-party programs that give an advantage is usually prohibited.
Is there a direct influence with the bot? :)

Answer 5

Cheating is gaining an advantage over other players.
If you follow the legal logic - then since other players do not have such a bot - it means cheating.
If you follow the mathematical logic - if the bot's average percentage of hits does not differ from the average percentage of hits of the average player, then it is not cheating (roughly speaking, there is no difference with a person in the game).
