It depends on the perspective and the definition of "truth". If it's the perspective of another person, full proof is impossible, but you can use arguments like "it's likely Levy exists." If it's the perspective of Levy, "I think therefore I am" applies. Or does it? How does thinking indicate that there's 'you'? If 'you' think, how do you know? Maybe you don't exist, but just your thoughts do. But again, you can argue that it's likely that you exist. Or do you? What is the definition of existence? What does it mean to exist? What if you only think you exist, but it's just an illusion? What if you do exist, but since the universe does not follow logic that fact is meaningless?

Every computer game is a draw unless a bad opening is introduced. For example openings like the Caro-Kann, French, Dutch and Benoni. The engine strength difference is measured more by their ability to survive these openings against other engines. Of course if you let a Berlin endgame on the board it will be a draw.

9:40: The reason black doesn't take pawn on A4 is because it doesn't need to; it can always grab it later, as there's no way to protect it from both rook and queen, and it isn't going anywhere. I ran in to this exact same phenomenon when I wrote a chess-playing program about 30 years ago. The moment the computer had a mating solution, it suddenly started toying with me like a cat playing with a mouse. It didn't mate me now, because it could just as easily mate me later. I had to add a special incentive "mate as quickly as possible" to fix that.

[@FoxtrotSierra951]

That's a really interesting emergent behavior, and it makes black's moves a lot more clear. I wonder if black also didn't take the pawn on A4 because it values position over material. As you said, the A4 pawn isn't going anywhere. However, the Queen on C6 is controlling the entire C file, which really shuts down white's queen-side rook and b2 bishop

[@michaelmassaro4375]

Big difference though that pawn on a5 like you say isn’t going anywhere but the computer should always go for the Quick Mate

[@Fera-gr5mm]

​@@FoxtrotSierra951No, it is that humans might simply forget and it is stressful to keep your opponent with a pawn up. On the other ha d threat might be better than its execution, making your human opponent as well excited what is going to happen with the pawn.

You know the chess is good when you question your existance in the middle of it.

[@humanrightsadvocate]

24:58 In the endgame, chess engines look for captures (among other things). Because the game of chess is solved for all positions where there are only 7 pieces left on the board. Unfortunately, there are cases where a forced win takes more than 50 moves and the losing side is awarded with a draw. Because the rules of chess suck. The longest 7-man mate is in the KRBN-KQP ending. It is a mate in 549.

I think the A4 and A5 oddity from the bots was because they both knew that the doubled pawns were hanging but also not a threat and therefore a wasted move, and white played A5 to try and get black to waste the time to respond to that move. Then black hand to take it because white forced it to, and until then it was a wasted move to take them.
