> The best chess seems to be when AI is used along with humans.

I don't think this is true anymore. I don't think I've heard about successful centaur chess games in years. I would love to be wrong there though (in particular if anyone knows about how correspondence chess games have been played in the last 2 or 3 years with the availability of Leela Zero and Stockfish NNUE).



Found this interesting article http://chessforallages.blogspot.com/2021/02/correspondence-c... which linked to this thread on the topic: https://talkchess.com/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=76382

Based on that thread, it looks like centaur chess is close to dead.

> Human input in top-level ICCF [correspondence games with chess engine support] games is now 99% eliminated, other than personal preference in selection of openings.
