It's interesting that you would rank Western Chess as more complex than Go.
Western chess programs are GM-strength.  Are Go programs equally capable?

I know one Shogi player who tells me that the ability of the available Shogi
programs is lacking, but I wonder if that is because it is complicated to
program a Shogi program or because there has not been much interest in producing
a good Shogi program as there has been a good western Chess program.
