I think this all depends on how smart you are with the new knowledge. If you have an evaluation function that knows everything that a GM knows, and you put that into a generic alpha-beta chess program, it's going to suck compared to other programs. If you made good use of the new knowledge and used it to guide the search correctly, you would essentially end up with a GM capable of churning through a few hundred or thousand moves per second instead of one or two, and I'd take that any day over Fritz at 3M nps.
