Alpha: *E4* Agad: A very nice move by alpha taking control of the d5 and f5 square but also threatening mate in 127 and what do you do here as black? You could go E5 but that would lose you the game immediately. So, this is move 1 and in this position, Stockfish.. resigned..the..game.

We are getting closer and closer to "solving" the game of chess as a single puzzle: "White to move and win". Either there is a solution to this, or, if not, then the "puzzle" would be, against each of the 12 possible first moves by white: "Black to move and draw".

Nice to see your channel grow. I've played chess from 6 to 14 years old, when my teacher had to move back to Argentina.

[@icarus106]

Every time I watch a game between Stockfish and AlphaZero I feel like I’m watching another episode of Black Mirror. The crushing inevitably of Alpha slowly constricting poor Stockfish and Stockfish trying in vain to escape is depressing.

[@samuelmassicotte9645]

Stockfish: "I'll try moving this pawn up" Alpha: "Don't" *puts queen towards rook* Stockfish: *moves rook* Alpha: "fine, I'll do it myself" *blocks with bishop*

[@Matt-ww9wv]

Aristotle was misattributed that quote, Will Durant said it while commenting on Aristotle's thoughts in his book ‘The Story of Philosophy.' It's an excellent quote, however. This is what Aristotle more accurately said, "As it is not one swallow or a fine day that makes a spring, so it is not one day or a short time that makes a man blessed and happy.” And later, “these virtues are formed in man by his doing the right actions.” Will Durant used those two ideas to create the quote in question from Aristotle's thoughts but the bigger name accidentally stole the credit.

[@richardsl3290]

Mahdi Valiyev yea saw that too. Think agad blundered there. Looked through comments if someone realized it as well

[@ovidiusova8321]

Capturing the queen with the rook is a blunder because Rf8 will be checkmate. The g6 square is guarded by the bishop.

[@Zhim94]

Rf8 Checkmate

[@richardsl3290]

Mahdi Valiyev im dumb lol nvm

[@abdullaalmosalami]

W8 I'm assuming you guys mean after rook captures queen, then rb8 captures rook, and then whatever black plays, rf8 is checkmate, but what about rook capturing bishop on c5 after queen captures? Then no checkmate?

[@coastside]

Agadmator, thank you so much for analysing these games. As a chess enthusiast with an interest in AI, it's so incredible to see these games. Engine vs. engine games are usually somewhat dull and opaque, yet these are sharp and exciting.

[@ricardolinscaldas7529]

If you are wondering why the black rook can't capture the white queen at 13:10 that's because Rf8 would be checkmate

[@waryemezez3369]

Thank you

[@paflanary4738]

This AI (her, she, or other nomenclature) seems to love constricting her opponents development. She is so good at it that it becomes totally obvious that this strategy is really productive, even at material expense, (she is not going to 'overlook' tactical spongs that us humans have to endure) that if only we could actually perceive her depth at this tactic we'd be halfway good at this damn game.

[@jesusdiaz2299]

Yeah! Its like she captures pieces without having to capture

[@willsk3122]

This shows the difference of knowledge vs intelligence where Stockfish is knowledge and may know many positions and can see much further ahead and AlphaZero is intelligent and can understand the mechanics of where pieces are and how that relates to strategy.

7:35 What if instead h4 white plays Qxf4 followed by exf4, Bg6 check, Kd8, Rxe6. I am too lazy to offer a continuation for black to this, but wouldn't it be slightly unconfortable for black even if the queen basically was given for a knight and bishop? Just to prevent the king from going to f7.

[@ismaelvolf4759]

AlfaZero shows real beauty of the game of chess. What I love most is the long term strategic decisions - sacrificing pawns and the compensation comes like more than 20 moves after that. Its incredible to "think" that far. It shows real human-based "thinking" only with the machine precision. I can admire Magnus and others but this is a different league and the games are not boring because of that human element of thinking alfa possess. What I also like is that it proves to me in full nudity that Stockfish is nothing more than a calculator - counting pawns and material and so on. Yes no man can beat this but its only because human brain cannot compete with the calculator but the creativity is not there. AlfaZero, on the other hand, shows creativity so far unseen within the machines. It is fascinating but also scary how capable this AI already is. In bad hands or with bad orders agains human kind that would be no fun. Not even MacGyver would be able to solve this.

[@نوافرشيد-م8د]

Nice chess channel. I really enjoyed your analysis on chess games. One thing I don't like about your videos is that seeing you fixing that mic in some videos. I hope you make a note on your desk reminding you to fix the mic before making videos.

[@atharvapatil4414]

The line I want to hear from Agad: : : : : : Here Alpha Zero Resigned The Game..

[@apollyon1]

can you imagine the brilliancy the next generation of chess computers will have?

[@angelmendez-rivera351]

We will not hear such a line for a very long time. And I'm okay with that. Watching Alpha Zero demolish everything is fun.

[@josephmerritt1411]

In one line of analysis of alternatives to 24. ... Nd3 at 13:08 you show black Rc8 followed by RxRb8 followed but RxRb8 but shouldn't black instead play RxQc6? So the only good move is 24. ...Qd5

[@markomalj4362]

at 9:02 as I see it, knight should move to d5 and this is winning move for Stockfish, wonder how it's not considered because it is a nice suprise, so far as I could calculate the moves, but, looks like it is the way to beat AlphaZero in this game

[@rmendeljacobs2832]

At 13:10 maybe you should've explained why black can't take the queen. Cuz of the mate on f8

[@frozencloud17]

"My bishop pair will always bring about your destruction." --AlphaZero

[@mystreriousuploader]

At 3:06, shouldn't the move be Qa5 ? Attacking the bishop, guarding the pass pawn, preventing Bc5 & allowing black to play c5

[@naveensoni5691]

I like the moment when it comes naturally and you say 'sorry about that'... So please don't fix it otherwise I am gonna miss this...

[@netoconection7254]

I found the bishop c5 move but didnt realise how good it really was until you explained it. I was quite proud that i made such a good move without knowing it. XD

[@SLauGHTeRHaHa]

I'm pretty new to chess, but I'm confused why knight d5 is off the table at 12:00. This blocks off queen to c7 and all I could see coming from white is bishop to e4 or rook to d1, which black could follow with rook to c8. I ~eagerly~ await your insight

[@bigblack111]

Probably white will play Rb7+, and after Rxb7 Qxb7+, black king is forced to the back rank and then white skewers the rook with Qb8+. Note that the g6 and h7 squares are controlled by white's strong light square bishop on c2, and this makes the combination works.

[@kellamyoshikage286]

3:46 Wouldn't Nd7 kick away the bishop and let you push the pawn? Edit: 13:10 what of Rxc6? I don't see what mating net white can manage out of this.

[@iyeriyer548]

I am new in chess. I analyse alpha zero's games as much as i can. They are always some what so creative and exotic. It is definitely better then GM's games. Agad please make more AI chess analyse in the future.

Antonio! How about chess analysis from a board? I'm pretty sure you have a board in your home and you could rearrange your setup to make this possible. I'm pretty sure it would be AWESOME! Kind regards from Brazil.

[@sujoysengupta2734]

@7:24 who said only Knights can be excellent blocking pieces? Beautiful!

[@raytheboss4650]

At 5:09 why can’t stock fish play knight to d7, attacking the bishop and when the bishop moves you can play pawn to c5 and castle ?

[@cyberMike242]

13:09 I am missing something or white after b8 should loose Queen...?

[@UnknownMagician93]

If black captures the queen, rook to f8 is checkmate for white

because if what you said happened then white can play rook f8 checkmate

It's all fun and games until Alphazero ALLOWS Stockfish to win out of sympathy.

[@WalterHassell]

Agadmator, this was the first video of yours that was distinctly unpleasant to watch. Not due to the content, but because the audio seems to constantly switch between 80% right ear, 20% left ear, and vice versa. Please find the cause and fix it! Each of your videos are a gem and it'd be a shame if any more of them were marred by sub-par sound quality. (Then again maybe it's just me - other viewers, let me know). Thanks!

[@evanpenn1]

Halfway through the next video, I want to see you shake your head and utter the line “and here, AlphaZero blunders”.

13:11 Black rook has to take white rook (not white queen) to prevent white rook to F8, checkmate?

[@sntshthapa]

In 13:09 after the white rook eliminates the black one on the b-file, why not take the white queen by the black one on the c-file? Isnt this better than taking the white rook?

[@collin5022]

@13:09 why would black take the rook c8b8, instead of taking on the queen c8c6? i think this is an advantage for black, and the appropriate response to rook b1b8

Immediate mate for white is not an advantage for black.

[@yaswanthkumarpabbisetti9937]

At 13:06, can black not play Nxf2? White's dark square bishop will not be able to capture the black knight and white queen is undefended.

[@Eliezer__garcia]

Amazing game, & I've been watching every video on your channel. Do you play in tournaments often?

[@albertonestone2860]

But do they also have to work knight shift?

[@andyelgrand0]

Queen E5 for black on move 12! then you can move your knight to a central position and move the rook

[@mohammedbadry2643]

at 13:11 minute of the video .. why couldn't black capture the queen after wight takes on b8

[@aohbmaeid]

Rf8 is checkmate.

[@ayyron13]

Your content is amazing. Keep up the good work. Cheers and Marry Christmas!

[@jonaske8049]

This video i often felt you made some mistakes or your engine did. Maybe the unrated me is just stupid, but why should black take the rook at 13:10 instead of the queen? Prior to this a similar capture was possible.

[@fernandorubio3444]

Hi I had this thought, im most certain that this is simply not allowed/ illegal but what if you have the situation to move a pinned piece so that its checkmate and thus no next move for the opponent to capture?

[@XFeuerFestX]

Simple answer: It is always illegal to make a move that puts or leaves you in check. You can think about it this way: With checkmate the game is actually cut short by one last move where the king is captured. This makes sense, since per definition the king can't be saved, so why keep playing? If you however deliver checkmate while putting yourself in check, that means your opponent would get to take your king before you could reach that unplayed turn, so you lose.

[@kyle4845o9]

At 13:20 instead of knight to D3 why not move rook from b8 to c8 attacking the queen and bishop and protected by your other rook?

[@davidaura8385]
