Re: Serious concern about RECKLESS engine
In Reckless author list are many Stockfish developers. Is Reckless basically Stockfish written in Rust?!

Re: Serious concern about RECKLESS engine
Since the source code of Reckless and Stockfish are both available, it should be possible for Ai to carry out a deep analysis of the two and highlight where the overlaps are.

A very brief analysis by my friend GhatGPT. Reckless most certainly implements modern techniques, but it is not Stockfish.Steve Maughan wrote: ↑Mon Mar 30, 2026 6:24 pm Since the source code of Reckless and Stockfish are both available, it should be possible for Ai to carry out a deep analysis of the two and highlight where the overlaps are.

I am waiting for other opinions. I will also discuss with Claude tomorrow.

Re: Serious concern about RECKLESS engine
Just for the record; Prodeo way ahead of Talkchess on this one (by Ai wizard Mark) https://prodeo.actieforum.com/t1824-rec ... s-reckless But I have to correct myself, memory was wrong I think, this is Mark's own investigations, not with an AI. Sorry!Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first
place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you
are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

Fluently in rust and c++. No AI. 'Course not. Nuts and impressing. Modern times.

My good friend -ChatGPT- got really angry after reading the comments on Talkchess... I can only afford a small and very punctual selection...

Re: Serious concern about RECKLESS engine
Well, Silvian, instead of blindly trusting Chat-GTP, try a second engine, a 100% clone like Shashchess.
90% of coding is debugging, the other 10% is writing bugs.

Re: Serious concern about RECKLESS engine
Sorry! At this time, Shashchess is of no interest to me. If I remember correctly, I briefly tested (like last fall) one version. Out of curiosity. I remembered: in October 2025. It was exactly the version Shashchess_391_64_ja_bmi2 compiled by Maestro Jim!
