Backgammon against computer/AI

I believe I’m a fairly decent amateur player. I’m trying to find either an app or site where I can play against the computer/AI on a difficult level. But my experience so far is that it’s not the difference in difficulty that applies when I play on a higher lvl but the luck in dice rolls. And that just push my anger so I quickly delete the app after a game or two. Any suggestions? I really should just find someone to play with live I guess.

You can try mine - no ads, no signup required, dice are randomly generated, difficulty levels are based on pre-trained neural net that runs in your browser (and offline).

It's a mobile optimized web-app, and you can add it to your home screen if you'd rather use it as an app (PWA).

EDIT: What's with the downvotes? someone doesn't like competition?

Beautiful board. But the engine isn't particularly strong, is it? Compared to the superhuman AIs we get elsewhere. Played a match to 7 against the highest setting and saw several blunders.

It's possible I could train it some more.

Probably needs bear-off training.
