It has been said by at least one chess player that they could beat a perfect
player, given a one pawn advantage. Has this ever been tried against a
computer player? I am interested in knowing how close computer players are
to a perfect player, how close the best human players are to the perfect
player and how close the best Go players are to the perfect player. It is
my conjecture that human and computer chess players are very close to the
perfect player relative to how close the best Go players are to the perfect
player. I believe that Go programs will eventually surpass human players
and go on to absolutely destroy the best of the best. I believe this
because of the complexity of the game. Computers can't be stopped. They
will continue to approach perfect player performance. What does the group
think?
