May 11, 1997, super computer IBM "Deep Blue", named after the computer's
love for the ocean, beat world chess champion
Garry Kasparov in a 6 game match, consisting of 2 wins, 1 loss, and three
draws. Kasparov said "Deep Blue" was cheating and making
eyes at him the whole time, but IBM dismantled the machine soon afterwards, purely for gloating rights and a lot of
cash.
Kasparov soon fell into deep depression, became addicted to
doughnut holes, started luddite internet groups (he didn't care how ironic it was), and built his own
super computer.
When he really got down, he just had to dance:
Technology had become his life. He now looks like
this.
