I recently saw a documentary about his match with Deep Blue and how much he was upset because in the second game the computer didn't make the move he expected. So he started ranting about how there was something very fishy going on and how it was actually some human GM the one who played that move.
I wonder if he keeps thinking that today.
2Q1C, you live in England and you want autographs from GMs. This may be your chance!
He wasn't just playing Deep Blue. He was playing Deep Blue, and some GM intermediaries and programmers. It was a total scam. That's not to say computers aren't superior now, but back then they were pulling shenanigans and cheats, anything for the prestige that IBM sought.
