Pinochle - logic of the bots!

Pinochle - logic of the bots!  Bots are not are friends! Anyone understand/explain the pinochle strategy used by the bots?

    @john98584 The bots in Pinochle aren’t being “mean” — they’re just following strict math. They don’t read the table, adapt to your bidding style, or support their partner the way real players do. They focus on winning each trick individually, relying on probability rather than long-term strategy. That’s why their moves can sometimes look unpredictable or downright wild.

     Just played a hand with bots. Bot passed me Queen, Nine, two Kings of three suits because it did not hold any of my trump. But the bot held three Aces instead which would have given me more meld and allowed me to take every trick. Where is that logic?
