What are new players or just players trying to learn something new supposed to do? It's blatantly obvious riot has no intent on cracking down on the hundreds if not thousands of accounts with obvious bot names like JeremyEsakNb taking default summoner spells and runes with default champions starting boots every game and proceeding to run down lanes.

Learning top champions was always an issue with bot games since they played double Top, but at least the other roles were somewhat acceptable to learn skillshot speed, last hit timings, and jungling. Even blind pick is infested with bot accounts so that isn't a viable option either.

Bots are GOOD for Co-op vs AI.

Co-op vs AI is never good for learning, though.

If that's what you had in mind, much better to make your own custom match and run around as long as you want. The problem with Co-op vs AI isn't the bots; it's the Golds+ who will end the match before 15m.

In any PVP queue, playing a dozen matches should place out of bots. It seems that MMR may have been reset once or twice in this preseason, for some segment of players. Still, placing above bots shouldn't take too long.

Bots have the lowest MMR. Playing at most a dozen matches in a queue, should place anybody above bots.

If you are using coop vs ai to learn something then just use custom games? You literally won't see a difference.

You can still learn in custom games.
