Why can positional knowledge not be obtained by adopting current opening lines as some programs do? To reach GM rating a good opening book knowledge is an absolute necessity. I belive,programmers should prepare book.Depth search ability has advanced far enough.Awareness of positional weaknesses etc is now part of most programs at least par with human players. Long range planning like in correspondence games should be achievable with a narrow but deep book.This should overcome human ability to deploy pieces creating a "JUDO" style like unbalance of forces which is difficult to dedect with weighted ply search.To reach supremacy the learning function together with an up to date book data may be the biggest factor. Programmers should team up with reliable data collectors to prepare a book best suitable to provide guidance into a manageable position. Marketing such book updates may prove to be quite provitable.
