http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail.asp?newsid=1956 What do you think about David Levy Statement: "Above all, we learned in Bilbao how difficult it is for a GM to play the best moves often enough to win against a top program. When two GMs play each other, each can expect his opponent to make some inaccuracies during a game, so that one mistake will often be balanced by a subsequent mistake from the opponent. Programs are not like that. The best programs play at a consistently high level, so much so that, after a program leaves its openings book, only very rarely will it make a move that gives much away. A human player, even though he might be able to play 2750 level chess for 95% of his moves, is somewhat more fragile, and for the remaining 5% of the time he will often play the second best or third best move when only the best will do. It is moments like that that frequently determine the outcome of a GM vs computer game – give a beast a single chance and it will pounce."
