I think that (a) the results are not always reproducible; (b) beating crafty by 1 game in a 10 game match is hardly conclusive; (c) beating crafty by 1 game in a 10 game match hardly is incontrovertible evidence that a "new paradigm" has been found and is working; (d) personal observation of the program by myself did not find it to be anywhere near invincible; (e) I didn't see a thing that says that as the machines get faster, it gets better than the opponent. Crafty responds _well_ to faster hardware also. Equally as well, at least, IMNSHO... I would rather see 100 games. 10 is no better than rolling the dice and declaring a winner.
