Humans and machines draw for totally different reasons.

Machines don't have any concept of a tournament. Humans go into drawn lines and get rid of tension in order to play the tournament meta-game. Since draws are worth so much, it's often a good idea to just bail out with a draw.

A lot of human positions wouldn't be drawn by machines, they would keep hammering the opponent.
