No

Most of the humans are simply against playing computers because they believe
they are too strong.

computers are not allowed to play for Fide rating.

What is the reason for it?
Humans do not believe that they are weak.

I do not know about a single person who said that Brutus is going to fail
miserably.

I wonder if there are people who said it after knowing previous results of
computers in tournaments.

How many times do you need to see computers perfrom above 2700 to predict that
it is going to happen again.
