Bronstein became interested in artificial intelligence when he received his first lessons in computer chess from Alexander Kronrod. He and Bronstein's friend Alexander Brudno gave a lot of valuable knowledge about the mathematical problems in connection with writing chess programs. As a grandmaster with a great interest in this subject he was asked to be an advisor to the Institute of Theoretical and Experimental Physics when they played the famous match against Stanford University. He already played a two games against the M-20 in 1963. Also in his later career, David Bronstein was open minded to play computers. He played Deep Thought and later Deep Blue and all Aegon Tournaments from 1990 until 1997, which he won in 1992 with a perfect score of 6/6, as well as the Aegon 1993 with 5.5/6. During the 8th Advances in Computer Chess Conference 1996 David Bronstein was invited speaker and told about his experiences with computers.
