Hi srrge:
Well, you said it: a GM, being a human being, can subestimate an opponent!! A GM
maybe gets bore; a GM maybe want to piss. A computer does not. There our chance
is. Of course you are right in a lot of things that I also know; I wwas just
giving a new glance to this in order not to fall in a dogma. I have the feeling
that computer perfomance Vs humans has been sistematically downgraded. Look at
what we do ourselves: each time we are beaten we just forget the game: each
scarce time we get a draw or a winning, we rush to save the game and show it to
our friends and you sincerely have the impression you are thre great thing. I
have seen many master being defeated badly one game after another by my top
programs, but then they win just one and begin to laugh on the computer, "this
stupid beast".
regards
fernando
