The problem with Go AI isn't that it's too easy, it's that it's too hard

Sorry for not answering your question, but I think you should know that, as @sanderl said, the ELO system is relative: some chess sites have “harsher” ratings than others, but the difference between chess and go in this regard cannot even been compared. Furthermore, OGS does not even use an ELO system but a rating system called Glicko. So you cannot compare these numbers in any sense.

For information, 16k is the 33rd percentile.
