"It Considered Every Possibility"

The idea
No champion-beating machine came close to considering everything — each searched selectively and trusted a judge at the frontier.
In practice
Two hundred million positions per second is a rounding error against chess's tree, never mind Go's ten-to-the-170.
Where people slip
The machines did not out-think every line; they out-disciplined human selectivity — and their play is exactly as sound as their judge.
