I'm not sure if there's much difference between AI-controlled plane and autopilot-controlled plane but all autopilot-controlled planes lower flaps at speeds which normally make the flaps jam. It's easy to check - break autopilot when entering dogfight, the flaps are usually down and they get stuck solid (very irritating when you've been flying 10 minutes on autopilot and time compression to speed up the mission). Spitfires even lower half-flaps, which is something historically bogus and impossible - the Spitfire flaps had two positions: up or down.
