I think that the situation is the same because it is not a competition of
programmers.

Having a competition of team of a programmer and his(her) program can be an
interesting idea but unfortunately it seems that most programmers do not support
it so I see no tournament of programmers when the programmers are allowed to
change the recommended move of the program during the game.
