Odell,

Personally, I would prefer to have the "kids" play these programs (Karjakin,
Radjubov, Carlsen, etc.).  I think there would be less of an ego trip and less
emphasis on playing games "not to lose."  The same could also pertain to
Radjubov, before he becomes brainwashed by his manager, show promoters,
Chessbase and FIDE.  I find the play of these young men to be most refreshing,
win or lose.

Karjakin didn't do that badly, considering his age and rating.  He was the only
human to obtain a win.   DHM
