    You have no concern for the future of humanity, do you?

    Maybe there are better things to waste resources on than pointless clunker that nobody wants or needs.

    Even if computerized chess were some kind of major achievement (it’s not), it wasn’t the massive waste of energy, resources, and hype that this nonsense is.

      Do you not comprehend just how many inventions are made because of progress in other technology? These balancing mechanics and pistons to be locomotive in a bidpedal fashion has previously been impossible. Now who knows what the future holds.

      But people with attitude like yours will prevent all progress because you just can’t see the need? This is how funding gets slashed and you get what’s happening in places like the US.

      That computer chess bot lead to other technology, you’re incredibly ignorant, it was a massive achievement in the field, how can you not see that? Because you can’t think of how it will directly affect t your life? Why would that even matter? That selfish?
