Deep Blue beat Kasparov but Kasparov took it way too lightly. He didn't

leave enough time to recover between games and wore himself out. The

programmers for Deep Blue kept changing the algorithm between matches so the

weaknesses found in one game didn't exist in the next game.

If Deep Blue played today's chess champion there's a very good chance it

would lose. The champion wouldn't take the challenge lightly.
