Do you think there's no point in bettering the mind?

I don't know whether mastering Chess or Go makes you a better thinker or not, but it certainly might, and many people think it does.

So if you become a better human thinker than you were before, who cares if a machine can still beat you at the game? It's for your own growth.

A machine is probably also better and sitting and thinking of nothing, but lots of people will still meditate.

Is the practise of a sport worth it?

Fundamentally, this is a question of human identity. If bots are better than us at everything, what is the purpose of anything? What would we do?
