Well, as the saying goes, "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em."
Maybe we should just move over to computer-assisted human chess and compete that way?

- dwohnitmok 6y agoI thought computers playing by themselves are equal to or better than computer+human pairs now (i.e. centaur chess is dead and humans provide no help but are only a hinderance). Is that true (this is just a half-remembered hunch)? Also even if that's not true, computer-assisted human chess for all but the highest levels of play would still be just "human accepts computer move."
