What it will do is create a new genre of music, "Sonographic Clone Rock."

The guy is an arrogant prick. Not to take anything away from his playing ability but the Deep Blue debacle was ridiculous. Accusing the IBM guys of "cheating" by having the computer study his games.
Besides, we're less than a decade away from Chess-AI-complete. After that it'll be another trivial game.
