It's fascinating how far computers have come. I remember Kasparov being pissed off at Deep Blue because it wasn't a "computer move."
I do think there is a down side for games being solved with computers. Mostly because games become highly calculated and right moves become computer moves.
Take a look at Paul Morphy's games. They are elegant and exciting to watch and analyze. I just don't see the same play happening today with human or computer players. Murphy would lose today but his games were beautiful, maybe even "incorrect" by today's standards.
- ZenSwordArts 11y agoWhile it is true that Morphy's games were beautiful, one should note that his opponents usually were significantly weaker players than him. You could also read this as: Morphy was levels ahead of the other players at the time. He could get away with 'risky' plays.
