Will a player be able to select certain functions to be controlled by the AI? And if so, will the AI be up to the task?

You mean advisors who "control" part of the player's nation?

It is similar like in CoG ... advisors with are able control some parts are possible to use, but be sure that player will do it better ...

Advisors or administrators (Governors, if you will) contyrolled by the AI and who administer the economy, so you can take control of the campaigns and not have to deal with it. An example would be Medieval Total War, where you are allowed to select and have the AI take control of Administering Taxes, Building, Training units, etc.

I think this would also permit a player to ease themselves into the game. Eventually, when the player feels more confident he/she will take back control of the function.

Thanks Matto. That answer my question.

Note also that CoGII:EE will have a mode where almost your entire economy is handled by the AI in simplified terms, allowing players to focus almost exclusively on warfare.

This is different than setting Advisors who handle things as they did in CoG1 (that is also still an option).
