The term, baysian (or beysian?) networks comes mind. They're an AI
approach for pattern recognition. They might help. I haven't used
them.

One approach you might want to try is:

  a) Invent tools so a real GM can monitor what players are doing
  and adjust their experience accordingly.

  b) Gradually introduce small AIs to make the GM's work easier.

  c) In the long run (many centuries from now), it'll all be AI.
