Where Machine Intelligence Ends and Human Creativity Begins
summary
Argument: machines win by making fewer mistakes not by thinking like humans; Deep Blue evaluates 200 million positions per second and a 1985 match features a human beating 32 consumer devices but by 1997 brute force dominates. A 1998 experiment called advanced chess shows a weaker player plus a slower engine can beat a stronger player with a faster engine when process and interface are superior. Modern systems like AlphaZero generate their own data but operate in closed systems, so replace versus augment is the key framing.
