This shows a total lack of understanding of chess. You only have to visit ICC to see GM players _regularly_ win blitz and bullet games against the highest-rated players there. Not matches very often, but they win games all the time. No computer would go undefeated against some of the good anti-computer players on ICC in bullet or blitz. > >2 ) 1/2 hour per player per game - ChessTiger would beat everyone but would lose >some games > >3 ) 1 hour per player per game - Things become closer > >4 ) 2 and 1/2 hours per player per game - The humans begin winning almost every >match, but still look for some upsets and interesting play. The above I agree with, except for maybe 2. I think some matches would be lost at game/30, although the computer should win more of them than it loses I am sure. > >If FIDE was smart they would have a computer category and a human category.
