if u r an ai-fan fear wladimir kramnik ffs!
he plays anti-computer chess :P

anyway i doubt that these chess engines r really as strong as they seem now that it tied to kasparow
these ties between machine vs human r getting boring and it seems as they dont really play to beat their opponent but to advertise the latest chess engine fs

but theres no doubt ( at least for me ) that computers will develop superior strategies to beat the shit out of our chess brains :P
 
Get a 'simpler' chessprogram on your computer, like Chess Master 8000 (its on kazaa, 79MB). Put it on the highest level and play against it. I bet it would 0wn you! So it's bollox about computerchess that doesn't play to win.
 
rgr that, I worte a chess program 20 years ago. And fs it was designed to beat the shit out of everyone. But with only 14k it was not to be :bawling:
 
Damn:

Deep Blue was custom-built to play chess, a 1.4-ton refrigerator size machine with 418 processors that looked at 200 million positions per second. IBM retired Deep Blue after the 1997 match in New York.

Deep Junior is a software program running on eight processors which calculates 3 million moves per second and evaluates positions better than Deep Blue did. A single processor version of Junior was commercially released two years ago and can be bought for about $50 to run on a PC.

lmao....
guess how many chess comps / chess engines i pld against?
cant count them
and as for the ties... imo the worldchampion is still stronger than the engine but it would get a bad reputation if the worldchampion or any other strong chess player beat the shit outta this program
i honestly dont think that the human is supposed to win as the company organizes that competion and wants to sell their product...
another thing many draws in chess r tactical draws noone makes mistakes or riskful moves so noone will lose
for a computer its way easier to shut any activity on the board down but the human is able to improve his position step by step ( thats the way kramnik did it in bahrain vs deep fritz half a year ago )
once kramnik got rid of both ladies on the board the engine was helpless

oh and ur ai engines would be quite shit without the ready-made openings... without them the chess engine would be lost lol

as u get better in chess the more u ll play with experience and not calculate every possible move like the computer
trust me i know my stuff ;)

The showdown in New York, an official match sanctioned by the World Chess Federation, is billed as Man vs. Machine.

Kasparov, 39, will be paid £350,000 by the federation, the international governing body of the game, for playing Deep Junior, which has not lost a match to a human opponent in two years.

He can earn an additional £185,000 if he wins the six-game match.

The contest is the first human against computer match under the auspices of the International Chess Federation, known by its French acronym FIDE. It is billed the ‘FIDE Man v Machine World Championship' and has a prize fund of $1 million, including a $500,000 appearance fee for Kasparov.

There is a lot money involved. If Kasparov would win, he would get an additional £185,000. If that kind of money is a prize you don't play to draw.. + drawing against it would damage your reputation as überchessgod..

first link:
he won the first chess game of the competion ( 6 games )
thats means shit
i meant that the outcome of a competion is a tie v often
weird enough is the fact that humans always seem to dominate the machine at the beginning of a competion but get so "exhausted" towards the end that they lose or r only able to draw...
and btw drawing means that neither the engine nor the uberchessgod would lose his face at least to me

3 millions moves per second... how can Deep Junior NOT win?!
A human can never do that kind of calculations, but how did it end in a tie? Why didnt Deep Junior used some überchess tactics to beat the shit out of the puny human??
