He recently spoke quite dismissively of computer- augmented chess on the Lex Friedman podcast. Essentially, the computer knows best...so computer and human isn’t meaningfully different from computer and rubber stamper.

I strongly disagree. The best correspondence chess players often improve over the computer suggestions. It takes time, energy and a great strategic knowledge, but it’s still possibile.

Maybe the future of computer augmented chess is to form teams of a computer, a person, and a dog. The computer comes up with chess moves. The person feeds the dog. The dog makes sure the person does not touch the board.
