        I can understand where the GM was coming from when he referred
      to the 'character of chess'. Chess is a game of oversights, and
      human failings, and the striving to avoid them. Also, there's the
      ego crushing factor, which does'nt apply when we compete with a set
      of instructions that someone wrote somewhere, sometime.
        Humans and computers can coexist ok, but we have to be considerate
      towards the needs of strong human players, and the reason they took
      up chess in the first place.
