Should AI be more common for NPCs?

Absolutely, on World of Warcraft, there are only a few Non Player Characters that use anything close to Artificial Intelligence. Most of the NPCs are entirely rule based with specific rules as to what quests can be offered based on the Level and skills of the users. It would be nice to see more of NPCs offer quests occasionally which don't operate off of that rigid a formula.

Now of course the ultimate on that would be to have the game have NPCs with AI that will join on the quests, I was hoping that something like that would be in the World of Warcraft:Cataclysm expansion, but they didn't even get close.
