I kind of agree with Gary Boos.
Give me 5 full time programmers, a super computer. I'll beat a professional 1
dan in about 4 years.
a 1 dan pro is stronger than most amateur 6-dans.
so you have to improve the state of the art from say 5k to 6d. this is 10
stones in 4 years! i don't think you could come close. getting to amateur
1d in 4 years would be a major breakthrough.
