Subject: Law of Diminishing Returns

Has computer chess programming reached a stage were it is becoming
progressively harder to improve performance with each new version of
software which hits the market?

Is it now at a level that improvements are only gained by running
programs on faster hardware?

Or is computer chess programming in a far more dynamic state of flux
where new ideas are constantly being developed but have not yet been
tested for improvement?
For example what about the application of "neural learning methods" in
computer chess? I hear a that such a computer chess program is
already in existance. Is this the new direction?
