I think it's really hard to make it play like a human. Even GMs miss two-move tactics sometimes, wheras computers are pretty perfect at this.
On the other hand traditional algorithms might not be very good at positional chess when on a budget, wheras even weak human players can understand basic concepts like putting your rook on an open file. Then it gets even more complicated with the NNUE position evaluation models - maybe even with a one-move budget the neural net is still implicitly strong at understanding several moves ahead, and could still beat a strong human player.
