What's the better AI engine to "listen" to?

So, I noticed that there's a lot of discussion among more experienced players about which is the better AI/engine to use for analyzing games, even if the chess.com analysis is in any way good.

Do u guys "listen" to chess.com analysis?

I'm also asking it because many times I'm studying my games and can't see at all why it's better to move a piece that has nothing to what's going on the board. So, can we trust chess.com analysis? If the engine makes mistakes, u think it's about not seeing better plays or misjudgind a situation?

Also, is it true that if the engines thinks u are going to lose, best moves suggested are focused on drawing the match? Cause I don't see the logic in this... I mean, if I made blunders to almost lose the game, so can my opponent, so my idea is to keep working my position and wait for his blunders, not to give away and chase a draw.

Chess.com analysis is fine. But you don't need to use an engine other than to check for obvious blunders.

Do you think reviewing a game you played is better than the engine?

Yes. Engines on chess.com just use

Brute calculation,which helps with nothing

If you're a member on Chess.com (gold, platinum or diamond, it doesn't matter which one), you get the full analysis of each of your games. This is more than enough imo.

Anything better than this is a bit of an overkill if you're not already at the master/GM level.

AI is a good trainer. The problem with AI is that it is a bot and plays against itself. It calculates it’s move based on another calculated move or “expected” move by your opponent as well as the last move. It will try to predict your opponent’s next move and will calculate its reponse based on that prediction. In an actual game against human, your opponent thinks differently and his response may not be the same as the expected move by the AI. So the recommended move by the AI may be a complete waste because your opponent did not follow the same line and it will need to recalculate again based on your opponent’s response, and it will also try to predict his response to your response. And the same process continues over and over throughout the game.
