Differences in computer D.I.?

I have been playing against computers with frequency lately. I was wondering what the differences in D.I. were for different CPU difficulties. Which CPU level has the most consistent D.I. mix-ups? I use level 4 and I've been told that levels 4 and 7 are good but I'm not sure. Any feedback is appreciated.

Anytime I attempted CG timings for CPUs, it seemed as if 1-3, 4-6, and 7-9 all had the same pattern set. For example, 1-3 if I recall would no DI, then DI forward, then back. Then, keep repeating forward and back. 7-9 did no DI at all. I forget what 4-6 did, but it was some sort of pattern.

I really wish I knew under what circumstances the AI would tech. I have seen all levels of CPU tech at random times.

I only fight lvl 7 and lvl 9's. I fight lvl 1's just to practice other things.

Lvl 7's seem to DI away from me a lot. Lvl 9's will DI anything that doesn't threaten sending them offstage straight into me, sometimes down. Both lvl 7 and lvl 9 DI everything up if it threatens them going off stage. Only difference is lvl 7 sometimes also DI's away.
PS: Lvl 9's are just DI-ing into you so they can try to hit you with their sweet, sweet, jabs into D-Smash. It's literally like all they do except specials from range.
