That's what a few machine learning people I talked too thought would happen. There are lots of examples (self driving cars being the big one) in machine learning where training on individual examples isn't enough. We were actually hoping for our models to be as strong as the humans they're trained on so we are underperforming our target in that way.

I'm the main developer for Maia chess

Have you thought about trying a GAN or an actor-critic approach? Did you find it infeasible?
