Interesting =], though I disagree that its unrelated, this is the AI forum, and that is an AI article! This forum isnt just a dumping ground for AI release threads!

He needs quite a few words to make an IMHO obvious (to anyone in academic AI) point though:

correctly evaluating a small handful of moves is far more important in human chess, and human decision-making in general, than the systematically deeper and deeper search for better movesÔÇöthe number of moves "seen ahead"ÔÇöthat computers rely on

Why does it say "Volume 57, Number 2 ┬À February 11, 2010" ?

Kloot: Don't forget his last point about the superiority of cyborgs.

Regret: Blame Lups!
