In this upcoming match next month Deep Fritz tops on the SSDF list will be playing a 6 game match with GM Hubner (2620 Elo). This match should be good indication if computers are now grandmasters. GM Hubner at 2620 is very close to the performance rating of the computers that have played grandmasters at tournament time controls. Deep Fritz is a well-known program, so GM Hubner should have ample time to find holes in the program and exploit them if he is able. Being match play should also help the Grandmaster if Bob Hyatt is correct. (I also think this is correct). If Fritz puts in a Grandmaster performance in this upcoming match, the evidence that computers are grandmasters start to become overwhelming. If fritz gets crush, and I would think this is what Bob Hyatt theory would indicate from his postings, it will be time for us that think computers are grandmasters to reassess.
