[@lapvo9557]

"as there was nothing more to be done"

[@PhilL30tard0]

Why did he resign? Well there is nothing more to be done here...this is hanging this is hanging, and if captures captures, there is also captures.

[@bazs7669]

Incredible moves. KH2 made me think how as children, our minds are so plastic and creative but we lose that as we become adults and abide by rigid rules. Alphazero has that child-like creative ability to see all possibilities, combined with incredible brute force of calculation. It’s an irresistible combination.

[@jdm6413]

well said and agreed

[@jordanliu9747]

Alphazero uses neural networks, it's not the same as brute force

What if you give A0 only the games of one single chess player like Fischer for example, examining only those games would it make A0 play like bobby? Imagine magnus vs past champs, i would enjoy that

[@phantasm3207]

Great, instructive video. Could you add reference to the games in description so we may look them up to view the entire games? Thanks.

[@Cloudland117]

That bishop move daring the pawn to take it is the best move I've ever seen

I thought that every single Alphazero's move was the top one

I usually end up doing Queen sacrifices, however, usually do them within the first 5 moves of the game

Ah yes for "positional advantages"

[@laali_puppy]

Nice examples. Would have been nice to see the stockfish analysis of the same position before and after AlphaZero's move. Did Stockfish expect any of those crazy moves?

in "stockfish NNUE vs Alphazero" Alphazero will lose because Alphazero has not been upgraded for a long time

[@nextsc4663]

@@DendrocnideMoroides Alpha zero is a neural network apart from actually adding more layers it upgrades and improves itself.

[@reinsaxony4623]

A0 would get wrecked, it's just a way weaker Leela by now. NNUE played SF and Leela for some 300 games in the CCC and Leela won. The 3 of them have similar strength tho.

[@michaelharbach1987]

Bg5 in one of its games was definitely the #1 move. Don't recall the exact game though, but it sacrificed a bishop for what seemed like zero compensation.

At 5:20, this is how to deliver a smooth checkmate Queen takes h3 pawn (giving check to king) King is forced to take queen on h3 Rook comes on h5 and MATE ! Reason: Rook has taken over the h file, poor king has been left with only two squares on g2 and g4 but both are covered by the light square bishop on f3. !! B O O M !!

I would love to see an April Fools edition to this series like imagine you are so into finding the move but then BOOM, the worst possible move is played.

If only I was able to watch that 100 game match live and had a beer every time Stockfish thought *WTF*.

[@jamesdelb6885]

The computer Go programs started beating humans at Go in such a convincing way that humans wouldn't play them anymore. Along came AlphaZero (AlphaGo) and in a match with the top computers, beat every one of them in a 100 game match.

[@TheNameOfJesus]

The founders of Google misspelled "googol" as "google" and in the case of "Alpha Zero", I think that's also a misspelling of "Aleph Zero" which is a long standing mathematical term for "infinity", which like "googol" represents a large number. A lot of people would see the word "Aleph" and think it's "Alpha."

[@vijayraj-ud8jq]

[@yellowtitan6040]

Yeah, and that engine got better than him in only 4 hours. Mind boggling

[@robuandrei5969]

You shouldn't call Alpha Zero the strongest engine ever. It crushed SF 8, yes, but so does SF 11 and SFnnue. We don't know if it even stood a chance against more modern engines.

Lol, he did not said engine rather strongest computer programme. Alphazero is not a chese engine dude.
