The text aptly explains that in the future a GM, no matter what kind of chess
genius he/she might be, will lose consistently to a computer chess program. The
author of the article feels that this makes playing against computer programs
futile and I tend to agree. It's something like playing paintball with a
terminator, before the carnage commences.

Best wishes...
