Yes, the machine who taught itself how to do chess plays more human then any human effort to produce a chess engine, This is indeed disapointing and shows the situation we have, Well, who taught the machine how to teach itself to play chess? I think that was Skynet by Cyberdyne Systems. :wink:

Beautiful game. Thanks for sharing. It is a very deep tactic in my opinion starting with Bf8! provoking Nb5 -> Nc7 fork A/B engines see Bf8 almost instantly, even without NNUE. All I see in this game is a bad blunder (Nb5) by an old engine. That move is the most human-like of all ... a mistake. :tw...

I hope that there are some simple instructions for removal. "It is possible to disable embedding, and instead specify a specific directory, e.g. linux distros might want to use CXXFLAGS="-DNNUE_EMBEDDING_OFF -DDEFAULT_NNUE_DIRECTORY=/usr/share/games/stockfish/" make -j ARCH=x86-64 profile-build" In...

Qxf6 is clearly better move. Can't imagine the engine would ever lose or draw after Bxa7. Though Qxf6 might save some energy, I suppose. :D Thats why we called it "best" not good or better :D But in your initial post you used "fails". Not sure that finding a move that always wins is a failure. :wink:

Not sure "fails" is the right word here. For example, in the first posted position, it seems that Bxa7 is hardly failing: info depth 54 seldepth 69 multipv 1 score cp 548 nodes 85074237208 nps 30965621 hashfull 1000 tbhits 3333976 time 2747377 pv b8a7 c6e4 d3e4 e6e5 f1a1 b5b4 f3e3 b7b5 b3a4 b4c4 g2f...

The more interesting question is (I think) will any an engine sac the knight? rqb2rk1/3nbppp/p2pp3/6P1/1p1BPP2/2NB1Q2/PPP4P/2KR3R w - - fmvn 16; hmvc 0; pm Nd5; Not any that play sound chess.

Almost 8 years ago, I was in an OTB blitz match at the local club and I was in an interesting position. I decided to spend some time and came up with a gambit I've never seen. My opponent took it and resigned after my next move. I've used it online numerous times and it seems good. Ran it through a...

Hello All, I finally got Stockfish NNUE to work! But first, I hereby thank those very kind people who took the time to try to help me. THANK YOU! Those who mentioned that as of August 20, the Stockfish NNUE updates now have the USE NNUE box already checked were correct. That was the problem, althou...
