"Chess is now in 'superhuman' territory and likely we will never see a reversal because any insight that benefits humans also benefits computers but not the other way around."
What is considered human is malleable. It is conceivable that humans will be enhanced in various biological and non-biological ways to a point that they can once again compete with computers.

- Mezzie 4y agoIt's a pretty common way for humans to deal with not being able to do something/something not working.
- anthomtb 4y agoI think you're making a joke. But moving goalposts is an integral part of all professional sports. The 3 point line in basketball and engine size and aspiration in motorsports are obvious examples. I don't see how adjusting chess rules to dis-favor AI competitors is any different.

- drakenot 4y agoI'm curious what kind of rule changes that could be made that would make Chess harder for deep neural networks?
