The second mistake is the incesttesting.Don wrote:The level I tested at was quite fast so I admit that I do not know how it would work out at long time controls. With increasing time it's true that general superiority is reduced due to more draws and the fact that you get closer to perfect play. So I cannot say for sure that you are wrong.diep wrote:We're not speaking about the past here however. You did do a claim it's 150 elopoints for LMR at a small search depth that's not realistic and THEREFORE you claimed it would be giving even more elo at slower time controls than the superbullet you tested.Don wrote:I think you misunderstood something about what I said either then or now. I believe that with depth any superiority is reduced generally - the ELO gap closes between a weak and strong program in general, but a terribly written unscalable program may actually lose ground with depth. You can easily write a program that does not scale well and loses ground to other programs with depth. That is not an absolute that it can never happen.diep wrote: Additionally it's you who in 90s already posted the indication that at bigger search depths the elowin for basically anything is smaller.
Claiming the opposite now is contradicting that claim, and rather naive claim.
The programs of 30 years ago - play them against Komodo and handicap Komodo to be equal in strength - then keep doubling the time control for each program and you will see Komodo's ELO increase relative to them with each doubling.
I really have to see that first and i really note that even in this reply you admit that t osummerize your statement here: 'in general with depth superiority gets reduced'.
So that's contradictary to your claim that with increased depth it wins more than 150 elo.
I seriously doubt that claim.
But this is an experiment ANYONE can do with Komodo - Komodo has an option to turn off LMR. So perhaps someone would be willing to play Komodo LMR against Komodo no LMR at something like 1+1 fischer, which is substantially longer than I ran but fast enough to hope to get a few hundred games in a couple of days or so.

It just doesn't work.
