They worked very hard on that project and got very little back from it. Even the good feeling of accomplishment from beating Kasparov was watered down and they took enormous criticism that they didn't deserve. I don't think they would disagree with you - what they did was a technological achievement and I can't speak for them but I don't think they believed they were primarily researchers. But they did publish papers and contribute ideas to the computer chess community. I felt rather bad for them for the criticism they took about a lot of things. Since they were "on top" they were targets. Kasparov was not very kind to them either. I have had my criticisms too. In retrospect, I would have avoided some of my own comments had I known what they were going through. In a lot of ways the core team was caught up in the middle of something they didn't have a lot of control over. They were not calling the shots but they were taking the hits. - - Don > Don't trow me veggies. :-) > > Eduardo > > --- Joshua Shriver <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escribió: > >> Found this link and thought you all might find it >> interesting. >> >> http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/oct07/5552 >> >> Interesting part for me so far: >> >> " At my lab at Microsoft Research Asia, in Beijing, >> I am organizing a >> graduate student project to design the hardware and >> software elements >> that will test the ideas outlined here.
