Human accounts would be human *only*. Computer (C) accounts would be 100% computer only. Cyborg (G) maybe, would be a combo where the human could use multiple computer programs, and either take the move he likes best, or he could simply overrule the computer at times. At present, you are 100% human, or else you are (C). This is the way most folks want it. IE *I* don't want to play someone that is using a computer without knowing. I wouldn't mind playing them myself, but I'd want to know so I could adapt my strategy as appropriate..
