Question: How have computers changed chess at your level?

Bareev: Well, we don't work at chess anymore. We just look at the stupid
computer, we follow the latest games and find small improvements. We have lost
depth.

Q: When you work with computers do you ASK the computer to find ideas for you??

Bareev: Always. The only thing I do. I switch Fritz on and then wait, for the
first line, the second line, and follow this.

Q: You are just being funny! But seriously: you find ideas and check them with
Fritz...

Bareev: I find ideas? No, FRITZ finds the ideas. I don't. Because we don't have
time. We seriously have to follow all these games and we simply don't have
enough time. Simply too much information.
