The crisis is really that humans are desperately trying to "compete" at a game that computers have soundly defeated human players at. The answer, endorsed by leaders like Kasparov, is abandon competitive human chess. Embrace the computers for competition, and use ELO for entertainment matchups. I don't care if I'm playing a "cheater", as long as the cheater is playing at my level.

I don't play chess often but would still enjoy a sit-down game with a similarly occasional player, without thinking about how much better of a game the Omnicron Neutron Wrangler can play. It seems to me the real problem is here not some sort of existential anxiety over humanity's future, but that a lot of people competing for social rewards are willing to lie to obtain them.
