The ally of my enemy will attack me sometime ... so going to a status
near war isn't that bad idea. Declaring war before attacking isn't
necessary because perhaps we stop war with our enemy.
But the AI should handle the situation like having war.

Techadvantage isn't needed to win the game, after having one winning
tech and the others don't have it you can stop research and go for war.
When the others have a winning tech and we can't steal it we have to go
back to research ... but i don't think that this should be a part of a
AI-Dip patch.
