Where can one play the latest versions of MoGo or other, similarly
strong programs? It is said that some programs are on KGS, but I cannot
find them. How to find them? Is it possible to play against them as a
human on CGOS? I, German 5d, would want to play even games on 19x19,
13x13, or 9x9 to learn more about their current playing level. How would
that be used for assessing the program's strength? E.g., KGS ratings are
inaccurate by +-600; the standard deviation of an EGF high dan rating I
subjectively estimate as roughly +-70. So IMO ratings are not useful to
assess a program's strength against humans. When will we see the strong
programs entering real world tournaments?
