I hope someone will run this subset with a fast 16 cores, 1 hour per position.

This proves them wrong.

After analyzing many engine engine games, I saw many difficult moves made by Lc0 which can't be considered by SF too.
But that's a different story and would warrant openning a different thread. Exciting times.

The third positiion with bm Qf6+! is quickly solved by Lc0 in less than 1 second.

Yes, a lot of this positions are easy for other engines.
I don't know why Stockfish is stuck sometimes.

So (if it really is the bm) at what depths do all the AB engines fail to find it?

What's funny is that almost all alpha-beta engines can't find this Qf6+! move but easy for an NN type.
Even funnier when someone like Lyudmil claimed it will take more than 20 years of
technological advancement before computer engines can solve this types of positions.

On your post above with a powerful multi-core CPU, after 1hr 42mins SF dev still thinks it is a draw.

You mean only after 9hrs 59mins did it consider the win or earlier than 9hrs?
But nevermind, thats still cool and impressive if SF-dev really did find this Qf6+!! move of Lydmil T.

Louis's "powerful multi-core CPU" orders Qf6+ first choice by depth 51 or earlier, though in what time and with what score (probably still negative) I don't know.

It looks like its eval goes positive (from 0) after 8 hours 16 mins, and winning (>+2.5) after 8 hours 25 mins.
