        The AI omniscience means that it knows about undefended cities and
will try to take them.  Removing AI map knowledge means that it will have
to explore that far.
        This can be a problem if you are new to the game and send all your
units out exploring.

        That would be the earliest AI, which founded a single city and
never built settlers. :)
