That's why people started talking about chess engines designed as anti-human machines. It was noted that competition between computers might not produce the best anti-human machine. The only way to select the best anti-human computer program is to have a competition where all the computers played against the same group of top GMs. Then the program which did best against that group of humans could ligitimately claim to be the top anti-human program.
