AI has long ways to go before it can defeat humans in a complex game like Dota2.

That's the "gloves come off" AI. Granted, its a problem solved by raw, mechanical button-pushes at a rate beyond what is possible on a keyboard/mouse, but it demonstrates the greatest skills an AI or computer has.
Of course, no one wants to see an AI beat a human using known methodologies. They want to see an AI win at the abstract game of "a game of strategy".
From this perspective, I think the poker AI results over the past year or two have been far more interesting. AIs figuring out the Nash Equalibrium and playing bluffing games around it.
Sure, its a bit mechanical and mathematically inclined, but generalizing and solving the bluffing game is IMO far more useful.
