[@theTman423]

For anyone interested in how the engines work: Brute force, used by Deep Blue and Stockfish alike, is simply just traversing a decision tree and evaluating every possible position with an evaluation function, or a mathematical equation that gives a score for each position. Stockfish is just able to do this a lot faster, because it does this with alpha-beta pruning, or skipping some branches of the decision tree because the score on others is high or low enough that it doesn’t need to evaluate every position. AlphaZero however, learns like a human by remembering patterns that lead to wins and storing them in something like a database to use for later. This is how it “learns” like a human does and seems to be more creative than other engines. It basically taught itself chess by playing against itself millions of times in order to build this database of moves. It’s a little more complicated than that, but those are the basics.

You are wrong in some points, Stockfish are more human. Human didn't remember the position and play by memories, maybe they remember openings, but not for the middle game thinking. Human think like Stockfish, finding what way to win the game, evaluating if the move is good or not.

[@adbon6279]

​@@aldoyudhistira5424Humans are more half and half and theres good saying that shows this, "Play the opening like a book, the middlegame like a magician, and the endgame like a machine". Humans in the endgame are like stockfish, they brute force calculate and remember winning scenarios, but in the middlegame, humans *need* to play intuitively. If your opponent is much weaker than you, then ofc you can just brute force it, but when youre of equal skill, esp at high levels of play, you arent going to out calculate your opponent, you need to be able to jsut understand and recognize winning patters through intuition, which is what AlphaZero does.

Garry made the classic blunder that has been the downfall of countless powerful people; He underestimated his opponent. Trying to exploit the unique features of chess-playing computers was smart, and it mostly worked, but he put WAY too much confidence in his own understanding of how computers played and it backfired, he took lines he otherwise never would've taken just in an attempt to exploit their novelty and he paid for it when the computer didn't react as he expected it to. But I suppose he figured that the computer would have the advantage in positional play due to being able to calculate so far ahead and it was worth the risk? Even though there were games where his strong positional play won him the game?

[@anastasiadudette706]

Deep blue: "It's over Garry I have the advantage" Garry: "You underestimate my power."

[@theangry0077]

id say that positional play would be better than tactical considering the limited depth, it wouldnt be like today’s stockfish which can see 25 moves into the future in seconds. however, even its limited depth would be enough to counter most tactics but probably wouldnt be enough to fully gauge how powerful positional play can be. just a theory tho

[@_qwerty_3545]

I would actually completely argue against this. My info on the situation may not be entirely accurate, but in a documentary I watched, it made a point of detailing that deep blue after the first match was specifically trained to beat Kasparov. The AI used training data from a ton of Kasparov games so he’d know how to respond to Kasparovs normal moves. Since the AI knew all his moves, Kasparov switched up his tactics and had to play differently. Not to mention, Kasparov had every right to assume his tricks that had worked in previous matches would work as the only reason they didn’t was because in between matches the ai was actively being updated, taking out any bugs and the such so he had no real choice but to refind out what he could continue to exploit and what was no longer possible. Frankly I don’t see it as overconfidence at all, I actually see the opposite. I believe that all the constant changes to deep blue, the over serialized environment, and the inability to use his comfortable play style had given Kasparov a ton of anxiety causing him to play not at the top of his game, leading to his constant resignations and loss.

When I heard "brute force" I realised that Kasparov was a genius. He went for the long game because there is too much to compute when you are in the endgame. That's why he only "improve his position". To get a better (and harder) position for the computer analyse. It was not a battle of chess. It was a computation stress test with chess envolved. Modern chess engines are so hard to beat because the computer no longer computes everything like back then. It does not have to. It learns moves, positions and strategies like we do, just faster and in bigger volume. Great video.

[@somebodyuknow2507]

@@fos1451 Stockfish uses a much smarter brute force - it doesn’t check literally every possible line, it’s much better at saving computational power by only checking the best lines (this is called alpha beta pruning).

I remember watching these games live at work. Seemed like you had to wait forever for a move. And then several times, the web site would crash and you'd have to go on usenet to find the next move. Everyone was using Fritz to analyze the games. But you needed a fast computer. I remember there being talk about one game that Kasparov resigned which was not lost (forget if he could have drawn or won). I think it was in the rematch. The rematch was really weird. Kasparov was acting very paranoid. He was trying to get the computer out of opening book instead of playing chess. He lobbed accusations on nearly every move. It didn't send a good vibe. It was almost as if Kasparov knew he was going to lose. It was a big moment when Deep Blue won because people were asking what the future of chess was. Would people still play? It signified a new era where computers were officially better players than humans. This scared a lot of people. Not for chess. But in what would come next.

Brute force means that you test every possible combination to a certain depth of moves and determine which move combination guarantees the best outcome. Pruning you could describe as more intelligent brute force, where you don't evaluate moves that you know beforehand are going to be bad. What makes the alpha zero AI at the same time both less computationally intensive and so much better is that it does not hard force any solution like deep blue does, instead it is built using a so called "neural net" which most modern AI is based upon. The engine basically has a lot of parameters built in, and then it plays against itself and other AI's and adjusts each parameter each match it plays, so it basically learns pretty much like a human would without access to books or the internet, through trial and error

thank you for this info kind stranger

Watching in January 2023, and I gotta tell you that chess is booming like crazy. Everyone startted playing chess for no reason. Pretty good time to start playing chess, dont'cha think.

[@AstraIVagabond]

The look of anxiety on Levy's face when he tells the treadmill story. Are we in an early stage sci-fi dystopia?

[@manictiger]

Sometimes I consider it. All it takes is some faulty programming or a virus, and all the sudden, a bunch of our military gear starts targeting anything with a heat signature. Like... Us.

[@RoyalFusilier]

I have talked with friends and we basically agree that we're in Early Cyberpunk already. We don't have the coolest aesthetic nailed down, but all essential elements are in place.

[@Lucasschepers]

It's insane that when Levy these days tries to beat computers, he plays a hippo type set up like in 15:11, and Kasparov was already doing that in 1997.

[@Obi-WanKannabis]

For different reasons. Levy uses an hippo because it is what delays the game the most, forcing the cheater to use his time up and lose before the engine does anything. Kasparov used the hippo because he wanted a long game as he saw that is the weakness of the engine. Levy would never win using an hippo against an engine these days with classical time control, as the engine would eventually break his defense open, it only works in rapid or blitz games. Then again the comparison isn't fair because today's engines are much better than deep blue was in 1996/1997

[@Jartran72]

@@Obi-WanKannabis In Blitz maybe. Rapid? No way.

[@Shockprowl]

Your historical deep-dives are really quite excellent. I haven't seen KZbin chess videos like this before. It's a really clever format of covering the entire 'event' in question, giving a commentary on the over-arching events, and nipping through some of the most important games. A superb format, and very informative. Thank you.

[@Pjoes1]

Plot twist: the software engineer was the one thinking of the moves and he was merely modifying the board on the pc to make it look like Deep Blue accomplished anything

Technically the second part of that isn't completely true since it is possible for the king to have no moves without it being mate

Thank you levy. U made me from an average player to a decent. Remember when u did the vids about how to improve chess players well THAT CAME IN CLUTCH. My rating was 900 to 1600 . Your annotations on the GM games was like a war and it was sooooo entertaining. I learnt so much and it was all because of u. The opening videos made me fearless( unless it is an opponent like u) but anyway U are my chess idle and I did only 25 puzzles and I took my time which totally worth it. I wish u the best of luck in your upcoming futures. love from the united kingdom

Watching in February 2023. I was never into board games and especially not chess but watching your content has changed that for me. I never imagined I would be interested in chess but I appreciate you opening my mind to it.

[@lukepitts2496]

Love these videos about chess history. It would be amazing if you could cover any 'immortal games', e.g. Kasparov-Topalov or Rotlewi-Rubinstein. Thanks for the awesome content Levy!

Nah these games are covered way too much. He should look at games that other youtubers are over looking

[@lukepitts2496]

@@Qhsjahajw They may be covered a lot already, but Levy has a unique and entertaining way of explaining games, where all players regardless of ability can follow the games and therefore be more likely to appreciate them.

[@spider853]

Some background on this story, Kasparov had access to Deep Blue logs after first encounter and could analyze it's logic. But when asked on second encounter (where he accused of cheating) they never gave him the log, also immediately dismanteled the machine and gave it to museum. Some people theoretize, that IBM wanted stock rise and be famous, so they most likely could've cheat with great minds behind the doors as they needed to revenge Kasparov to gain trust/attraction from investors. What do you think?

[@panama2468]

That makes sense
