Yes, we have seen this in other areas. When you want to travel faster, you don't
build faster legs but a bicycle or a car. When you want to lift heavy loads, you
use a forklift. Birds flap their wings to fly, airplanes do not.

There is also another problem in doing it the human way: How the ---- do humans
do it? When Kasparov looks at the board he sees most of the good moves, I don't.
Now, how would I tell my computer what to look for?
