Indeed?  It depends on how one defines the term smart.  Those who wrote
chess software reached a point where their own creations could beat the
pants off of them.  I myself wrote a Sudoku solver which can solve a couple
standard 3x3x3 puzzles per second.  That software can solve not only 3x3x3s
but higher order puzzles up through 14x14x14 sudokus.  I sure couldn't do
that in a reasonable amount of time.

Software isn't smarter than us at everything, but it is smarter than us at
an ever-growing collection of specific tasks.
