Bots useful or useless?

I practice against bots all the time. I find them very useful - especially if you adjust the settings so you can undo/takeback moves, to try different lines. Great training partners!

Bots are tools — not opponents. If you treat them like a sparring partner for specific training goals, they can be incredibly helpful. But if you're just playing bots to feel good, you're wasting time.

Are chess bots useful? yes, and no. They won’t roast your terrible moves, but higher level bots sure wont cut you any slack either, I use higher level ones all the time to practice(find thye weakness in my play) Ive finally just got a draw with The Velociraptors after way to many attempts
