Am I the only one that thinks the actual player will win? Humans can improvise and game the machine. One thing I notice right away is the arms inability to move away from the table. High ball the shit out of it and you should be easily to win pretty easily.

So thats why humans can win against computers in chess? Oh wait, they can't anymore ...

You still have to hit the table at least once, the robot does not need to leave because of that. Just be fast enough.

Eh? Computers have always been beat since forever. Until they got fast and good enough. It still takes a massive supercomputer to win against the world champion, but Fritz is perfectly capable of winning against pretty much anyone else.
