I don't know the ratings of the programmers of any modern chess programs, but here are some stats from the book: Program Rating Programmer Rating Deep Thought 2580 Hsu 1200 Hitech 2413 Berliner 2400 Cray Blitz 2300 Bob Hyatt! 1400 Chess Challenger 2250 Spracklen 1700 Belle 2200 Ken Thompson 1700 Bebe 2200 Scherzer 1400 Phoenix 2200 Schaeffer 2100 Novag 2150 Kittenger 2000 Chess 4.9 2100 Slate 2050 Kaissa 1800 Donskoy 1600 Hard to say from the chart, but maybe a low Elo is an asset :)
