I looks so easy when done by a master, and programs do in general tend to be very passive IMO. But even though I know most programs has these weaknesses I am not able to exploit them, and I think that goes for about 99% of all chessplayers. I do believe that we could develop anti-computer strategies, but I also believe that the programmers could develop anti-anti-computer/anti-human strategies. It just hasn't been done on a large scale on either side yet. A match like this is good, it will expose the programs positional weaknesses and that is what the programmers need to fix it, I fear the programmers have been too focused on comp-comp matches for too long. -S.
