I am sure that there are GM players who think that computers are strong. I do not know if gulko is going to win games but it is clearly possible and history tells me that tiger did not lose a game in a tournament when GM's played. Not all the players were GM's but the time control was slower than the games against gulko and Tiger did super gm performance. Some facts: 1)programs are capable of doing super 2700-2800 performance at tournament time control(Tiger and Deep Junior proved it in the past) 2)The time control against gulko is faster than tournament time control conclusion:They have a chance for 2800-2900 performance that means probably not to lose a game against gulko and I do not see why no GM is going to agree with Jerry.
