Subject: Perfect chess play - and still loses?!

Author: Terry Giles

A poser (just for fun)

The perfect chess-playing machine 'Quantum-Chess' amazingly resigned its first
game after only twenty moves in its match against the current human world
champion Kay Sar. The Japanese GM opened the game with her favourite g4 and
after reaching an interesting and apparently equal position ‘Quantum-Chess'
promptly resigned.

Question: Assuming the machine really can play perfect chess, and Kay Sar (3015
elo) cannot, why did ‘Quantum-Chess’ resign?
