I do not see why a match against a human in fast time control is so interesting to watch. top programs already drew against super GM's at 120/40 so the only way to make a game/60 against a GM interesting is not to use the best program or to use a slow hardware or to use rules that help humans(for example every side has the right to take back moves in the game but not more than 3 times and the clocks are not changed when the side take back moves). I do not see what is the interest in a match when the computer is a clear favourite. Uri
