Bots Level the Playing Field?

Adam, your point is my point exactly. The reason I am offering these bets is that I agree that instead of leveling the playing field, as many have claimed, the bots have made it possible for those who have the time and skill to work with the bots to become even better.

What the bots have done, however, is prove that the difference in skill between the top players is very small, and they probably have narrowed the difference in their plays significantly.

25 years ago I think we would have seen many of the best players in the world disagree completely on many moves where today they pretty much agree on all the moves, and where they do disagree the differences are very small.
