Info about Leela Zero:

...
Leela Chess Zero (lc0) is a free, open-source, and neural network-based chess engine and distributed computing project.
Leela Zero's algorithm is based on DeepMind's 2017 paper about AlphaGo Zero.[3][6] Unlike the original Leela, which has a lot of human knowledge and heuristics programmed into it, Leela Zero only knows the basic rules and nothing more.[7]
Leela Zero is trained by a distributed effort, which is coordinated at the Leela Zero website. Members of the community provide computing resources by running the client, which generates self-play games and submits them to the server. The self-play games are used to train newer networks. Generally, over 500 clients have connected to the server to contribute resources.[7] The community has provided high quality code contributions as well.[7]
Leela Zero finished third at the BerryGenomics Cup World AI Go Tournament in Fuzhou, Fujian, China on 28 April 2018.[8]
Info about Alphazero:
en.wikipedia.o...
AlphaZero is a computer program developed by the Alphabet-owned AI research company DeepMind, which uses an approach similar to AlphaGo Zero's to master not just Go, but also chess and shogi. On December 5, 2017 the DeepMind team released a preprint introducing AlphaZero, which, within 24 hours, achieved a superhuman level of play in these three games by defeating world-champion programs, Stockfish, elmo, and the 3-day version of AlphaGo Zero, in each case making use of custom tensor processing units (TPUs) that the Google programs were optimized to make use of.[1] AlphaZero was trained solely via "self-play" using 5,000 first-generation TPUs to generate the games and 64 second-generation TPUs to train the neural networks, all in parallel, with no access to opening books or endgame tables. After just four hours of training, DeepMind estimated AlphaZero was playing at a higher Elo rating than Stockfish; after 9 hours of training, the algorithm decisively defeated Stockfish 8 in a time-controlled 100-game tournament (28 wins, 0 losses, and 72 draws).[1][2][3] The trained algorithm played on a single machine with four TPUs.

Relation to AlphaGo Zero
Further information: AlphaGo Zero
AlphaZero (AZ) is a more generalized variant of the AlphaGo Zero (AGZ) algorithm, and is able to play shogi and chess as well as Go. Differences between AZ and AGZ include:[1]
AZ has hard-coded rules for setting search hyperparameters.
The neural network is now updated continually.
Go (unlike Chess) is symmetric under certain reflections and rotations; AlphaGo Zero was programmed to take advantage of these symmetries. AlphaZero is not.
Chess can end in a draw unlike Go; therefore AlphaZero can take into account the possibility of a drawn game.

It seems that the essence of the Halloween gambit - the creation and maintenance of a strong central pawn chain and a space advantage in the centre for white in exchange for the knight - not only compensates for Black's extra rook in this game, but counters it quite effectively, since there is a severe lack of open files for the rooks to render themselves useful on, in light of the closed position generated by both sides retaining most of their pawns. White only had one rook, but it established itself as the most active rook of the entire middlegame by making use of the semi-open b file to exert pressure. On the other hand, lack of space on black's side of the board meant that the black rooks were hemmed in and saw their utility extremely restricted, while the mis-coordinated knights on the back ranks exacerbated the situation by hampering the movement of the king and the release of the kingside rook. White's bishop pair worked magnificently well with the white pawn structure even in the somewhat closed middlegame position, with the black-square bishop coordinating with the advanced central pawns on the dark squares to drive an immobilising wedge into the heart of black's base, and the light-square bishop covering the holes on the light squares.

[@mmartel]

Superb comment. You nailed it.

[@kingscrusher]

A stunningly thoughtful comment! :)

[@augustnicholas4418]

i know Im kinda off topic but does anybody know a good place to stream newly released tv shows online?

[@majorkai4960]

@August Nicholas Flixportal :)

[@augustnicholas4418]

@Major Kai thanks, I went there and it seems like a nice service :D I appreciate it !

[@fillorkillorder]

10:58 "If black had feeling" , these are the cheeky entertaining comments that, in addition to the high level of energy and excitement you transmit in your commentary, give meaningful value to this amazing analysis that separate it from boring monotonous analysis other youtubers make. Great video as always KC.

[@seasideman]

Fascinating game. I was following it with Stockfish 10, and my engine saw Nb4 as being the turning point. This move wasn't in the top 4, and the analysis changed from roughly -1.5 to +0.8 because of just that move. I find it amazing how Leela saw an advantageous position so far ahead.

[@caspera3193]

I never knew that the Halloween Gambit is that playable. It is such as crazy idea that the great Stockfish lost to such a wild gambit.

[@glaucosaraiva363]

Hey Kingscrusher i think that would be nice if you replay the entire game during your last comment in this engine´s videos. This games are getting so crazy, with so many variations, that at the end we forget what was the real game played. Thx

[@paulbloemen7256]

Amazing to see that these super engines like Leela revive an old opening like the Vienna, and make this Haloween Gambit look feasible. My 50 year old Euwe books do look down on these openings. Does it take a Zero to put the record straight?

[@danielhines6728]

Remember, this is blitz.... If might not go so well if S.F. had more time to think ahead.....

[@YoutubSosetXui]

I wouldn't belive you if you told me couple years ago that stockfish will get spanked rooked up in hallowen gambit.

[@Stockfish1511]

Stockfish beaten leela in the same opening with much lesser moves and won the tournment comfortably ahead of the field. So wouldnt say it was spanking. This channel just is pro leela

[@Stockfish1511]

Also lost much less han leela

[@danielhines6728]

Also, this is a fast time control.... For a longer time control, SF might fare a lot better.....

[@DGA2000]

...who is ONLY rated 2170. I wish "I" was only rated 2170...

[@okibelieveyou7553]

Was this played in the TCEC? I can't find the game. Great coverage btw!

[@tombodenmann980]

Antony Christodoulou no. Its T60, which did not play TCEC.

[@alexmagor]

Amazing!

[@northzealand]

To many ads/commercials- but damn good vid

[@Bobby-fj8mk]

8:19 sacrificing a Rook? - no one would think to do that. Leela made an extraordinary move and won the game.

[@jacekgatkowski8869]

Great cover Kingscrusher. I love this channel. Not only do I learn about chess, but also beautiful British language. Well played Sir :) And it seems that a center thorn pawn is good enough compensation even for a rook. :)

[@danjeory3659]

Just goes to show that, against an uncastled king and with a central pawn majority advancing, neural networks value bishops over rooks... Fascinating.

[@doncar9]

Amazing sacrifice, fascinating game. Thanks for it.

[@AronHardemanGoogle]

Where did you find this game?

[@MoonBurn13]

...So is the stem opening for the Halloween Gambit, the 3 Knights Opening?

[@kingscrusher]

Yes I believe so

[@youuuuuuuuuuutube]

That f5 move is like God playing chess.

[@AlwaysAudacity]

With those long pawn chains, the two bishops are better than the knight and rook!

[@TheTinaben]

Seems stockfish was the one with a rook down. This rook on h8 couldn't do anything the whole game

[@christopherlees1134]

Great game. Way too many advertisements.

[@tawidwidkasit-an6930]

Does Leela even know that she is playing chess, and not sungka?..Or someone whispered in her ears long ago?..I like Stockfish not a pretender, small brain fish but still play and do , the things it is designed to do.

[@raylopez99]

Hi all!

[@Christoff070]

I don't need no money.. A song for lying golddigger... :))
