It just sounds like you're bitter, you always think the grass is greener on the other side. Computers havent ruined chess, you have a choice, use them in study or dont, its that simple. I know it can be semi annoying when 1400s are knocking off "their" assisted guesses to the next GM move when you're watching a game but hey thats their loss, they wont end up improving much by just reading notation off an engine panel.
Hey numbnuts, every single opening line ever played has most likely been played, analysed and written by a GM.

You do any studying, it's GM assisted.
You look at databases it's Gm assisted.
You look at non GM games, they're using GM moves.

If you want to play on your own.

Play.

I don't agree. Thats his opinion, but solving chess isn't that crazy of a concept, especially when my home computer can process millions of positions in seconds. You just get a huge database, and you get a couple of deep fritzs and deep blues and let them crank for a couple of years. Have them go backwards, as computers already have perfect databases for 7 piece endgames. You are going to tell me that this is not realistic???

I was making the point that some people dont think for themselves when watching chess, I dont see how your post is relevant to that.

Are you saying chess will be solved during our life time or even in the next 200 odd years? 2million moves per a second is a drop in the ocean compared to all the varitions in chess.

Maybe, but given that a chess game can contain about 5000 moves the perfect game probably couldnt be played by humans anyway.

I dont think we will. The human race will destroy itself sooner than we can develop fast enough computer for that.
