Kasparov vs Deep Blue Match (1996)
In February 10 1996, Kasparov and Deep Blue met for the first time. At the time chess playing machines were not as strong as they are today but Deep Blue was still a great form of machinery far surpassing machines ahead of its time. Six games were played between the two, Deep Blue won one game, lost three games and drew two games. The result of the match proved that the human mind could still surpass that of a mechanical chip. The outcome of the match made IBM further improve the machine to make it better than it was before. Another match would be scheduled for 1997 between the two where Deep Blue would be much better prepared than the world champion.
