Seirawan, Karpov and Fischer are way too old for this kind of challenge. Even Kasparov is somewhat old. I would definitely prefer to see Judith Polgar or some other young top grandmaster against the machines. My dream event would be an Scheveningen tournament pitting five or six top grandmasters against the same number of top programs. José.
