Book learning and >position learning _barely_ scratch the surface of this problem. ...which is what the guys who say "i'm disappointed with smirin's play, he just copied van wely" seem to miss - while some program authors claim their programs can learn from mistakes, this learning is very very limited! and to otello: it is not coincidence that the games are similar. smirin obviously knew van wely - fritz. and computers just don't understand that position... and with all their processing power they cannot copy ideas, only moves. aloha martin
