Stockfish does not see a clear win for white even after a long time.
I wonder if computers can win GM's with black from that position.

I think that given a large number of games, a computer can win with black from that position against itself.

[Eelco de Groot]

This is not forced but it would give White a good score. The last PV sees mainly a King Safety advantage though (plus an exchange) and maybe it is too high. White even seems to sac a knight for King Safety advantage and it is almost an endgame already so I don't know if it is correct. Now I see White does get the rook on h8 in exchange for the knight. So it is not a real sac. (in the final diagram PV at 35 ply)

Stockfish does not see a clear win for white even after a long time.
I wonder if computers can win GM's with black from that position.

How much more than 1.8 do you expect at move 3?
And as for the output- line, of course you cannot hope for more than a few plies being trustable, just the same as for other non-forced positions and lines. Mate in x can be precise over many moves, "postional" positions and lines can't.
Here e.g. 8.0-0 has better theory already and helps raising the evals.
To your question if computers with Black can win that against GMs, no, they can't, because GMs wouldn't give them a try.

Can someone, perhaps Louis, provide deeper (depth > 60) analysis of this position? It's not so obvious that 3.Nxe5 is the best move here, although it's definitely the most forceful one.

Here's Cfish-dev with multi-pv = 2. I'll let the search continue. So far, Nxe5 is still preferred.
