I'd say the AI is an excellent negotiator.
When you're not in a position to ask anything, you make ridiculous demands, which you then weaken to something more reasonable. At the end, you receive something, while in reality, you should've been glad the other party even bothered talking to you.
Clearly, the content of your barbarian skull is not able to grasp the refined, advanced and civilised art of diplomacy like the noble and superior AI does.
