That will be the next stage, but the first stage is what looks like not too much
longer than ten years to solve chess in the world.
That will be be quite a dream. But I believe I would know what to do with one if
I had personal access to one, better than many would know what to do with it.
  I would analyse many positions which I simply cannot get to the bottom of the
way things are.
We would even know if some of the GM positional superiority is correct!
