The one thing that got me was how IBM funded the chess team until they won big and then dropped the project. It’s like that story of the chess grandmaster who played often in a local pub. A stranger walks in and plays him for a beer.

The grandmaster thinks this is great I’ll let him win this time and then I’ll have a free supply of beers in future games. After the game, the stranger leaves and the chess grandmaster asks when are you coming back? The stranger says ”Why?” I just beat a grandmaster.
