I think that the answer is in the following text , grabbed from Tim site , that
admit honestly some trial and error approaches :
"It is possible that Nemeth (like me) went through some trial-and-error before
he won these games, but that is not the point; the point is that it is possible
to beat the strongest chess programs in the world with the Nemeth Gambit, or
with 1.d4 h5 2.e4 e5.
Of course, computers also find good moves that a human would never think of, and
they're a great help in analysis, but what I wanted to show is that they don't
"play chess". In spite of all the hyperbole about Kramnik who will "defend
humanity's honor against the computer" (Der Spiegel) and "gain revenge for the
human race" (The Telegraph), his upcoming match against some Fritz has, apart
from the money involved, no more significance than a match between a cat and a
book for the greatest weight.
As a defender of humanity's honor, I prefer Nemeth."
