To be fair, it takes us humans a solid couple of years of continuous training to make sense of our sensory inputs and get accustomed to our limbs enough to begin doing anything significant with them, so I am regularly flabbergasted at the expectations we place in our lowly contraptions to outdo us by two to three orders of magnitude.

- Frqy3 9y agoHumans have had millions of years of system level optimisation (evolution) which then only needs a couple of additional years to train the wetware to operate the system for daily activity. Chess has only been around a mere 1,500 years and has had an evolutionary impact on only a very minute portion of the population. Hence it takes a few additional years to specialise a human for optimal chess performance.
