Actual quality of insight? Not 'quality' rather 'expression'. There is a mountain to climb regarding this, and programs have only made the merest scratch on it (with features like the Fritz 'blunder check'). Annotation of a whole game in natural language tailored to the strength of the player would be my goal as it would actually be of use. 'Progress' in terms of another 100 or 200 Elo points is irrelevant as, for the average player, programs are overwhelmingly strong anyway; what use is a better or deeper analysis if it's presented as a mass of numbers and symbols?
