Re:Expert with comp vs Expert against comp - 2006/08/15 08:24
isnt the strongest, but it marvelously meets the critewria I layed down. Most computers are far bewtter at tactics then humans, wholeheartedly even GMs. In so far these GMs don`t need the strongest progfram as an assistant. They`ll use programs to support opening, endgame, and tactical analysis, all that "deep" positional knowledge chess programs have is as froth to the understandin top GMs bring to a positoin. I suspect transparency is more of an issue, you want the program to show you why a tactics is bad quickly, rather than ponder away and claim it loses X pawns. Of course there are positions where deep tactical anaylsis rightly counts - Sicillain Dragon being a frequent source of such positions, but I think computer discreetly assisted humans would be wise to avoid these unless they are confident their attack will land first. ---------
