Why use rubbish Books based on 2200-2800 human when you can access 3600+ engines for free?
I think engines are slightly below 3600 these days, but still way above humans. However, engines are not good at openings. I find the analyzing tool useful to point out mistakes and missing wins. I also find it useful to see which moves are book moves in a game already played, but if you want to find good moves to use in the future, it's better to look at top games or to look into an opening database to find popular moves. Those opening moves are normally better than what Stockfish suggests, or it can be moves that you personally like better or find easier to play because the continuing moves and the coming position will be easier for you to handle. You must keep in mind that you can not play like Stockfish the rest of the game, you can only play like humans. You need a position that humans can manage to continue from.
There is no evidence human books are better than engines. If Stockfish did blunder in 1 in 1000 opening positions, human do blunders at least x10 times than Stockfish.
You dont understand what is the reason behind this move Carlsen played etc. Dont lie. But you can see what is the reason the moves are played by engines, there are always PV and searched lines.
And these people extensively analysed and prepared with computers and regurgitate in OTB from their memory ( with of course with hit and miss ). Then why dont you prepare with engines like them yourself?
