I have played with stronger humans, including my younger brother, many games, and it doesn't seem I can improve score. Humans are much more flexible than a crude bad opening avoidance a program might do. >I also think that computers may be more unstable because there is > some chance to get them into positions that they do not understand. That's exactly where the fragility of the program strength comes from. It takes a human to readjust the openings and evaluation parameters before the program will correctly handle such position (although again only in its literal minded ways, which with experimenting a human player may be abla to bypas or find some new unforseen side-effect of the changes).
