We have reached GM level and are slowly approaching the super GM level and you
want us to throw everything to the trash bin and start over with radically new
ideas?
On the other end I agree that computer chess programs are still lacking in many
areas, we have ample room for improvement.
Maybe the radically new way will be to do the same things (alpha beta, and so
on), but in a much more aggressive way (human pruning is much more aggressive
than computer pruning).
