...I will now be silent...After I perform the psychoanalysis on the "LeelaknightOdds-Dev" algorithm, and taking my last 10 games as a starting point, my estimated elo would be 1-10/10*700 =x.lkaufman wrote: ↑Mon Oct 07, 2024 12:43 am Since getting upgraded just prior to Sept. 28, LeelaKnightOdds-Dev (trained specifically for knight odds play) has the following results on LiChess, counting only games against 2400+ rated humans and only with a minimum of 3 min base AND 2 sec increment. 164 wins, five draws, ZERO losses!! Most of the opponents in the 2500s, which is typically somewhere between FM and IM level. This works out to a performance rating approaching 3300, way above the blitz rating of Magnus Carlsen on LiChess!! It's risky to extrapolate from this that the bot would actually win a 3'2" match giving Magnus Carlsen knight odds, but that would be my bet. Moreover, Leela did this despite being internally set to play 1'1" bullet speed or even faster, and despite the single-GPU computer sometimes playing other odds games simultaneously! Of course in Rapid it MIGHT only take a 2700 FIDE level opponent to win a match, perhaps we'll find out soon.
If anyone knows of any players near or above 2700 FIDE who might be interested in a match for moderate prize money, or if anyone has contact info for such a player who might be receptive, please send me a PM. We have one interested so far, but we would like to have two or three opponents this year. If and when we show that we can win a Rapid match from a 2700 ballpark player or two, we can start to approach the top ten players in the world. The goal is to be able to win a Rapid knight odds match with any human in the world by next year sometime. If we can't get Magnus Carlsen to play we'll have to show a performance rating against top-10 players that exceeds his rating to claim success.
I recall the discussions here about a decade ago, with the general conclusion that the above would be forever impossible, although I recall that Bob Hyatt disagreed with this conclusion. Hopefully we'll find out before too long.
3300-x=y; If the trend continues, my performance in 169 games would be = x1, breaking all standards. The depth of our souls and the mysteries of the Creator are insoluble. Thank you again Mr. Larry Kaufman. I would like the help of someone in the forum for valuable collaboration in placing the game with Fritz playing the human without his queen based on a sacrifice against Odds, by the human being. That departure will help me regain hope, despite having the unwavering faith, that the Programmer of our spirits guides the history of humanity.
