Chess Computer Scenario
SCENARIO: “In recognition of his contributions to the ‘pre-history’ of chess, Bobby Fischer is hired as a technical consultant.
In the August issue of the International Computer Chess Association Journal, ex-World Champion Mikhail Botvinnik offers a more sanguine speculation;
“There is no cause for panic, almost everything will remain unaltered! Indeed, women go on playing chess although they recognize that men are stronger players. Men players continue playing while realizing that the world champion is much stronger. The only one to suffer will thus be the world champion, or rather his ego, since he will cease to be the strongest chess player on the globe. But he will find solace in knowing that he is a better player than any other human being.”
