Hello Uri,

What an extra-ordinary statement.  I am a patzer and a non-programmer so I do
not and cannot speak with any chess authority but the game - until someone
proves in a definitive way - IS about competition among humans (and computers).

I shudder to think of a day when humans have retreated from the game and left it
up to the machines.  I realise, of course, that this may not be a popular
perspective.

Until the computers do it consistently, the standard of play are the GM's and
other master level players.

Later.
