Computer programs have now passed every test it seems that people have produced
objections for to debunk the above results.

1.	Preparation
2.	Motivation
3.	Quality of players
4.	Money
5.	Match conditions against strong GM prepared players.
6.	Tournament conditions with strong GM players.

Even with all the “holes” still left in the modern chess programs play, which
the critics of GM level play for computers rightly, point out. It must be noted
that the human side has only been able to produced 5 wins against these
weaknesses, while the computer side has produced 18 wins against the human
weaknesses.

This begs the logical question: Which side has more “holes” that need to be
fixed, Humans or Computers?
