I think you&#x27;re missing the point of man vs machine competitions when we&#x27;re talking about testing intelligence.<p>Machines are obviously better at everything requiring fast-twitch reflexes and massive data analysis. There&#x27;s nothing interesting in a competition there.<p>In Starcraft, the fear is that machine-level micro may make it completely pointless. A human could play strategically better and still lose because the physics of moving a mouse are different than the physics of a transistor.
