See the following link , with commentary to the article by Chessbase Staff:

an excerpt:

Today's computers do not try to mimic the processes of the human mind. They
always do "brute force computation". At the same time they may display behavior
which is practically indistinguishable from human activity that is driven by
"learning, decision-making, strategic thinking, knowledge representation,
pattern recognition and intuition". Prime examples are Fritz, Junior, Shredder,
Hiarcs, Tiger and other members of that crowd.
(...)
The developers have explored the possibility of human decision making, pattern
recognition and intuition, only to come up with a traditional brute force
program in the end, one which only crunches numbers but at the same time
displays behavior that in humans requires pattern recognition and intuition.
