Suspiciously quiet on abrok, sf11 on the way?
Nonsense. Stockfish brilliant project is Communism 2.0 in real actual action.
By this kind of progress there is ~450 elo progress since Stockfish 2.3.1 in 7 years.
Nonsense. Stockfish is deep searcher. It will lose the race against LC0 or any other intelligent idea because it the others play better chess.
AndWhich is why programs seem to keep making progress on the SSDF list. And why reviewers, either dumb, or with axes to grind, wax lyrical about the latest programs.
This race between Komodo and Stockfish leads to nowhere.So I call it counting beans - useless for us humans.
Now, take a knowledge program, you can play it and see the play style. You can try and work out what it does and why. There'll be a reason, based on human chess heuristics. The game has plan, and flow, and doesn't consist of hidden minefields. It won't grind you down by search, it will try speculative ideas which it might, or might not, be able to get to work. You can see the speculative ideas, and try them yourself. I think you can, as a human, relate to this type of program. If you know the programmer, maybe you can see patterns into the program that come from him, and so on. I think these types of programs are infused with some force, in so far as any chunk of silicon can be.
I hate materialists.

Stockfish passes 3500 elo at 4 core. I don't know why 3500+ elo isn' t enough for you.
