Is there a point in playing Chess or Go when you know there's a computer out there that can beat you (and everyone else)?

No, that's why I just play against other humans.

In this game of work/development, you can't make sure that other humans don't "cheat". Our work won't compete anymore with other human's work, but with a computer.

You can play PvP in those games. Not really the same with developing software. In fact, not using ai would probably make you lose if there was some “software PvP” mode or development.
