@Joe Joyce,

Well first is rateher obvious there is a ceiling, due to given hardware to human performance. Yes human are indeed very scalable, but the point of AlphaZero, is that neral networks are too. I'm not sure how scalable but probably roguhly the same as humans. From a sportmanship point of view computer games are again superior as they ca just play continuosly where humans need rules preventing getting tired. I think a 9 rounds swiss tournament of renn chess for example would probably take around 20 days for humans. And that is no in any way an extreme example.
