Re: A Crossroad in Computer Chess; Or Desperate Flailing for Relevance
People like H shouldn't have done what they did, however, there is not so much for "good faith" in computer chess programming anyways, this forum is full of it and I'm gladly contributing my part.

Re: Removing bugs from bug free functions
Raise stack reserve size. Inlining this function causes stack overflow.

Re: Which is stronger AlphaZero( 5000 TPU) or Stockfish(30.000 Cores)
If your alien race is far more advanced then I see no reason to send our poor imitations of human intelligence than our top human chess player. Their computers will probably run our crappy programs much faster but our biological evolution and individual personalities are something they will never ha...

Re: Using Freeware AI and Dynamically Generated Endgame Tablebases
Well there is the problem: people so far have no meaningful way to describe how those networks work. Currently networks contain huge number of parameters and they correlate in mysterious ways to produce the outputs, that is also why large numbers of games are needed to train those networks so that t...

Re: Using Freeware AI and Dynamically Generated Endgame Tablebases
To simplify what I said, or I understand you correctly about the approach: Take a position with a few pieces, a bit more than(or within) existing EGTB coverage, and start generating games, train on the resulting games and try to improve the next iteration until it can predict the correct move with h...

Re: Using Freeware AI and Dynamically Generated Endgame Tablebases
Well, this usually ends up with some very over-fitted networks because you are intentionally limiting its training sample diversity. Such raw database exists, with billions of positions and most of their moves analyzed at reasonable depth, although I fear it is never going to be enough to train a ne...

Re: Using Freeware AI and Dynamically Generated Endgame Tablebases
There is a conceptional difference between "an exhaustive enumeration of subsequent positions given a certain position" and "an exhaustive enumeration of every possible positions given a certain set of material". The former is essentially a search without any pruning, functionally being a special ca...
