They may learn tactics or even how to prune their tree better, but I know of no chess AI that learns "how to play" the same way you would say a person learns how to play. And that's the whole point of this general AI thing we're trying to get across.. learning how to do a task given appropriate instruction and feedback by a teacher is the golden goose here..
