No not at all (re: Karpov hanging a full piece to Christiansen in the opening), but computers *do* tend to make some positional howlers *much* more frequently than a human GM. For a human GM, it's often much easier to spot and exploit a huge positional error, than a tactical one that is deep. It would be quite sound match strategy against a computer to wait for it to make on of these abysmal positional blunters, then smash it, rather than try to beat it up head on, when one doesn't have a clear advantage.
