What standards should be used to judge if a computer program is of
grandmaster strenght? Should we use a rating standard and say if a
computer reaches 2550 elo then its of grandmaster strenght, or do we
need to study how it wins. Does the program need to have the positional
understanding of a grandmaster to be one? I ask this because the micros
are very close if not already there to meet some of the standards. What
standards should we use to say yes this program is of grandmaster
strenght? I think its telling that a top GM like Anand would even
consider playing Rebel, unless he had some respect for the way the
micros are now playing.
