King Richard the Lionhearted of England. Alfonso the Wise of Spain. Ivan the Terrible of Russia. Were all battle-tested kings, but their favorite victories came… on their chess board.
The game has become synonymous with logical prowess, wealth and power since its earliest invention in India during the 7th Century. And for fifteen hundred years it has demonstrated the logic-craft, the mathematical ballet of the most elite minds.
That is until very recently.
Computer vs. Man was a logic-boxing match that many thought would never have a real competitor, but after hundreds of years humanity recently met its match.
The computer had a name. Deep Blue. And 25 years ago on February 26, 1996 it became the first computer to beat a human being at chess. It was a landmark moment in technology’s logical ability to create, adapt, and win.
Deep Blue claimed victory over a Russian chess champion named Garry Kasparov, who was considered the best chess player in the world. Kasparov remembers that the audience experienced both astonishment and grief at his loss.
But at Blue Eagle we recognize that the audience that witnessed the chess match between Kasparov and Deep Blue that day was wrong. Technology and people are not poised in an adversarial relationship. In fact, at our company we’ve leaned fully into a full investment in both leading technology and talented professionals, which has placed us ahead of other logistics companies.
