The world you live in and the one I live in are two different things. I haven't been beaten by a computer chess game since I was 15. Granted, I'm not playing Big Blue and I'm not Kasparov.
I haven't been beaten by a computer chess game since I was 15, either. Of course, that's because I don't play them. There's free chess engines out there with an estimated ELO rating of 2600 so unless you're an international grandmaster, you're not really trying.
Seriously, a little knowledge about AI will show you that computers excel in formal situations with a limited search space, like chess. But open up the possibilities a little, like an RPG, they still don't compete well with humans.
