Deeply impressive. Both the game, and GM King's commentary.

[@davionwilliam3671]

Instablaster...

[@AlonsoRules]

AlphaZero seems to want to give up pawns and win the game before the endgame

[@geonerd]

I hear Daniel sent Alpha-Zero a huge bouquet of Valentine flowers! It's True Love! LOL!! Thanks for another wonderful video!

"I'm looking here from a very human perspective, I must admit." - Grandmaster Daniel King hahahahaha

[@bekanav]

I don't see Rb8 such a difficult move because it includes trivial discover attack to Bb2 and improves rook to an open file. But in that sense A0 does it it is an extremely deep move, I think beyond human capacity. Thank you Daniel for these enjoyable analysis!

[@rogerlie4176]

Do you follow TCEC season 14 superfinal between Stockfish 10 and Leela? Leela is a neural network chess engine project inspired by Deep Mind's AlphaZero paper and it is holding its own against SF 10, which is much stronger than SF 8. After 27 rounds(the final is 100 rounds) Leela's result is 5w 6L 16D. Some of the games are really interesting.

[@michaelvanzyl9418]

Roger Lie they are even now I’m pretty sure

[@mcpartridgeboy]

Leela is a troll

[@alvinrodney6229]

Daniel, I remember playing through the Fischer vs Bisguier game and remember seeing white's Nh3 move. When you were describing around 3:16, who the notable players were who played the position, I was eagerly waiting for you to say Fischer!, and you did! ;-) thanks

[@adamrubinson6875]

Great stuff Danny. Beautiful game

[@StrongwillGameTheory]

I love your AlphaZero series. Please more of this.

[@YesPlease1]

My heart is aflutter

[@shadowjack22]

I’m really enjoying your Alpha zero commentary. From what I can tell, the published alpha zero games only contain the moves, but have no information about what alternative moves or lines it was considering. Is this true? How does this impact your analysis of the games? Based on your knowledge and experience and other engines, I assume you can make reasonable predictions about how alpha would have responded to different moves from stockfish, but your analysis of alternate lines must be somewhat hampered by the fact you don’t have your own copy of alpha zero to play with. How significant is this?

[@tropics10001]

Wow! Some very cool moments!

[@neanderthal10000ac]

I imagine a return to the past: Capablanca, look at this match!

[@DarkSkay]

Probably one of the most beautiful games the universe has ever seen, romantic indeed :)

[@rxw5520]

3:33 white is only two moves away from resetting his fucking pieces 😅

[@julioandresgomez3201]

Stockfish didn´t foresaw the shot bishop f3 timely enough, only just in time to prevent immediate catastrophy.

[@DarkSkay]

The chess demigod has descended from the heavens and Caissa is delighted ;-)

[@teslathejolteon8007]

I already ordered the book but they haven't delivered it yet :(

[@uya78ipek41]

How could you add chess videos in an ad?

[@magpie-nn5ob]

The 7th Calvary is best known for their massive loss to American Indians at the Battle of the Little Bighorn, Montana, in June, 1876. Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer was killed along with 267 of his soldiers. The battle is known as "Custer's Last Stand". Indian leaders included Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse. Yes, I know you're a Brit.

[@vitakyo982]

Italian is one of the best openning ...

[@AnandSivaram22]

Was it a nerfed sf8? I really don't know.. This isn't the beast that we all feared is it.. Or was it just a0 making it look easy??

[@liam314]

I think st8 didn't have an opening database, but other than that st8 was running on the maximum 64 core hardware

[@burt591]

It's A0 making it look easy, it would be nice to see how it performs against Stockfish 10

[@tonyb9735]

@@burt591 Apparently they have played it against a then unreleased development version of SF9 with similar results, i.e. Alpha winning by a margin. Not sure about SF10. I think maybe DeepMind "won" chess and have moved on to other things.

[@abhigo7788]

Yo

[@nilsp9426]

The Bf3 show...

[@tonyb9735]

During the commentary, several times you referred to white as Alpha and several times as SF. I found that quite confusing. There is nothing in your graphic to say which player is black and which is white and you don't introduce that at the start of the game.

[@PowerPlayChess]

On the right side of the screen you can see the notation, the first player is White and the second Black. Has been like that since I’ve uploaded videos on KZbin. Hope that helps for future videos :)

[@tonyb9735]

@@PowerPlayChess Thanks, I got there in the end but I felt it could have been clearer. I suspected that the first player was white but the commentary was confusing at points which lead me to question whether that was a reliable indicator. Nonetheless, I do enjoy your presentations. :-)

[@yonatanshenhav1208]

the videos in which u analyse the computers playing against each other are your best videos, because they're original. in my opinion u should focus on them a lot more than on boring repetitive GM games

[@zifircin1797]

seems like even after all these years an engine like stockfish can still play like deep blue

[@renatoeckel2011]

I wish the black player was a human to defeat computer dumb moves like Nxa7. Can humans play like that ever?

[@sagardahal6807]

first

[@owurakuboadu]

A0 is literally worse than leela lmao. Pathetic

[@eyeofhorus1301]

Not sure what you're talking about. A0 is more impressive than Leela to me

[@eyeofhorus1301]

but even if it isn't I think a lot more effort is being placed into Leela's chess abilities than Alpha's. Google just wanted to make Alpha really good at chess to demonstrate and they did that. They're not trying hard to dominate the chess world. They're mostly focused on moving on to other areas.
