Of course, two games do not mean much. But one thing is almost
clear to me: computers play a complete different chess than
humans. And as long humans play the usual style, it will be
very difficult to compete with the best programs. If humans
play a computer adapted style, the strongest programs will
have (in my opinion) much less success. On the other hand,
such a playing style may heavily hurt humans usual chess playing
style. What to do in this situation: GM's/IM's and other players
should only fight against computers for fun in order not to ruin
their chess abilities.
