Is success vs CPU indicative of actual Leo.

I’m just learning chess and am dutifully completing lessons and doing puzzles. I’m playing the cpu a lot and doing better than I expected. Is that an accurate indicator of my rating? I.e. if I usually beat the 1300 bots, can I be confident I wouldn’t be completely outclassed by a 1300 human?

Alas, no.  The bots are quite overrated, by at least several hundred points.  This doesn't make them useless as practice partners of course, but don't believe their ratings.  Also, despite programming advances to try and make them play more like humans, they still don't.  And of course there is no time control.  If you are just learning chess your rating is probably still under 1000.
