No, you added Gandalf to your special new-paradigm club. Knowledge based
programs are hardly a novelty, so the term "new-paradigm" is a little silly.
There's a lot knowledge based programs available.

But you're right about one thing, Gandalf isn't a bean counter AFAIK, even
though that definition is slightly blurry to say the least.

Btw, chess programs don't make plans. You interpret their moves as a plan, but
it isn't.

I must have missed your posts. When you compared Gambit Tiger to CS Tal why not
mention Gandalf as well if you've always been a Gandalf fan? It seems obvious
given the knowledge you possess about the program.

No, I was thinking about your attack on the "bean counters". A more constructive
approach might be preferable if you really want to achieve something resembling
a change of mindset.

No, I don't think so. Why would you want to?

I don't have any rights in that regard. I'm just puzzled about your ability to
reason from absolutely nothing. One might say that your relationship with
objectivity, knowledge and facts is very speculative indeed.
