That's correct. Poker sites are very careful not to give hints to the sophisticated bot builders regarding what element of their 'human behaviour' algorithms, or decision trees, or automatic charts or whatevs failed to convince.
Bots don't get tired, but people do - the smart bots try to emulate human behaviour, but it's very hard for a robot to be programmed to screw up convincingly [click wrong table or button, take longer & longer to act as session progresses, time out, bathroom breaks, mis-type "nh" in chat as "mh" sometimes]. There's no doubt still a lot of not-good-enough human emulation in nearly all bots.
I'm not totally convinced re the offer in this thread - trying to disprove bot use by presenting HHs & stats for inspection. It does depend what is meant by "bot" - there being so many different types, & also it depends on the game[s]. But as a general rule you can't disprove the existence of a bot in your own play any more than you can disprove the existence of god. A bot used some of the time for only some simple game situations isn't going to be detectable. For example [not directly relevant to this particular PP thread of course] a bot used ONLY for the early non-ante stages of low buy-in, large field MTTs [a pre-flop auto-folder of poor starting hands for example] will help a multi-tabling 18-hour weekend grinder enormously.
He'll have a lot more time to make smart decisions on critical hands & his ROI should increase a few percentage points, but such a bot [if built reasonably well with some basic randomising elements] isn't going to show up at all by looking at tournament stats or HHs.
