I think you are wrong.  What is right around the corner is a big hammer,
once the GM players start playing vs the computer's obvious weaknesses.  It
will take another 10 years probably to combat such play.  And once the GMs
start doing it, we are going to have a difficult time for a while.  It is
hard to do at blitz, but at game/30 it is possible, and at 40/2hr games, it
is not hard at all...
