How do we feel about the engine? 🤔

Sometimes I find insane tactical lines (that I of course miss) and positional advantages that gave like a +4 on the eval bar (that I've dropped to 0 after a single king move). Conversely, sometimes I think I'm doing really well and the engine says I'm garbage but I end up winning anyways. 🤪 I definitely want to use the engine to improve by finding thematic issues with my game play that I can address, but I think also it's probably an overused tool. In the end it's just gonna show you how bad you are compared to something you can never be as good as. Even seen super GMs' eval bars swing back and forth pretty silly in some games (especially blitz and bullet) because chess is just something so complex a computer is going to have a totally different understanding of positions compared to the human mind.
