Stockfish 16's Immortal King's Indian Defense!

Amazing attack by Stockfish 16 in King's Indian Defense as black.
Stockfish continues to demonstrate its ability to discover superior moves with remarkable speed. In self-play against Stockfish 15, this new release gains up to 50 Elo and wins up to 12 times more game pairs than it loses. In major chess engine tournaments, Stockfish reliably tops the rankings winning the TCEC season 24 Superfinal, Swiss, Fischer Random, and Double Random Chess tournaments and the CCC 19 Bullet, 20 Blitz, and 20 Rapid competitions. Leela Chess Zero was the challenger in most finals, putting top-engine chess now firmly in the hands of teams embracing free and open-source software.This updated version of Stockfish introduces several enhancements, including an upgraded neural net architecture (SFNNv6), improved implementation, and refined parameterization. The ongoing utilization of Leela’s data combined with a novel inference approach exploiting sparsity, and network compression ensure a speedy evaluation and modest binary sizes while allowing for more weights and higher accuracy. The search has undergone more optimization, leading to improved performance, particularly in longer analyses. Additionally, the Fishtest framework has been improved and is now able to run the tests needed to validate new ideas with 10000s of CPU cores.Stockfish now comes with documentation, found in the wiki folder when downloading it or on GitHub. Additionally, Stockfish now includes a clear and consistent forced tablebase win score, displaying a value of 200 minus the number of plies required to reach a tablebase win. Furthermore, the UCI_Elo option, to reduce its strength, has been calibrated. It is worth noting that the evaluation system remains consistent with Stockfish 15.1, maintaining the choice that 100cp means a 50% chance of winning the game against an equal opponent. Finally, binaries of our latest development version are now provided continuously as pre-releases on GitHub making it easier for enthusiasts to download the latest and strongest version of the program, we thank Roman Korba for having provided a similar service for a long time.

This was a hell without mercy. I was relieved when Clover finally was able to rest in peace.😂

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

You completely explained it in one sentence😁

[@asprinama]

today’s super gms are too afraid to lose that won’t attempt playing this god type of chess. Magestic presentation Josip. I love your intensity and passion

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Thanks for the beautiful comment

[@detroiter4eva]

GMs aren't top-level Game Engines.

[@gheffz]

I did enjoy this game, as usual Josip. Loved the way you picked games with winning black pieces with decent openings, I completely understand. Yes, these games are gems, and like gems hard to find. Other engines have improved their "resign" logic, too... they can see the writing on the wall much earlier now with the advanced engines. Great detailed analysis and delivery. Thanks for wanting to bring quality games to the table.

[@a.m.armstrong8354]

Engine KID is classic Ali level chess counterpunching..

[@FloydMaxwell]

An exceptional crush by the fish

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

The fish always amazes, again no stopping no reversing, first blow to the fish and then no counter strike for Clover. Thanks Josip.

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

👍

[@jeuxdeau2009]

im glad i found your channel! Love the energy

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Thanks for the good words

[@a.m.armstrong8354]

This game is an absolute monstrosity! I'm upset with myself at being so happy about it. Engine chess is a sick business!

[@williamkyburz]

Thank you Josip, great analysis.

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Most welcome

[@yanceyward3689]

As a computer, The Fish never takes the eye off the ball. White desperately tried to offer that rook for the knight several times and got no taker.

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Brutal game

[@ahmedben7083]

Thypical kid attack position instructive analysis more wins with black for future thanks Mozarov

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Soon another

[@a.m.armstrong8354]

​@@JozarovschesschannelIs there notation I can access? I love this game.

[@coxscorner]

A truly immortal KID

[@blijebij]

Brilliant tactics from the Fish! Is It not better for white to castling at the queen side in the kings indian? Or is this dangerous?

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Iz is very dangerous. Has to be prepared with some positional motifs. Check out Kramnik vs Kasparov 1994 Moscow round 2

[@blijebij]

@@Jozarovschesschannel I will thanks!! I think maybe stockfish has to learn us how to do it, and if it can be rewarding or not at all. So maybe its impossible but at least AI gives us a real chance to look at this seriously :)

[@walterhuff3483]

The evaluation Bae said white was winning 50 percent of the video so how is black winning in the beginning

[@a.m.armstrong8354]

Black takes body shots while delivering head shots..Ali Foreman, bro..

[@a.m.armstrong8354]

This game is a Monstrosity...
