The AI is the computer program that runs the sim. It doesn't have to "calculate" anything.

It "knows" where you are at all times, it knows when you make a control input, and has a perfect solution for hitting you at all times.

All that the settings can do is either slow this process down or limit the range that it picks you up as a target.

I don't know how much of that goes into the AI calculations. What can be is not necessarily what is. But I can say that the AI is only predictive to a simple level and that a constantly changing path is beyond any AI in-game.
