I am not a believer that a computer can ever beat top human players at its full 19x19 Go game. My Go playing ability is around 1 dan level. I played against the "Many Faces of Go" version 12 a while back, ranked at 2Q. There simply isn't "Artificial Intelligence". One way to tell if a program is up to the task is simply let it take back a poor move. No, it can't and simply plays the same move.

Go is not about joseki. Manyfaces is only around 8k in the opening and weaker than 10k (i believe) in the mid game. A few fancy moves, throw it off the balance. In Japan, a student below 1D is a student.
