This forum became really funny lately

Leela learns patterns in self play games. In new positions she tries to find this patterns. That's why she is running faster with gpu which are optimized for calculating images. Leela don't save one single position in it's NN. She found something in the position which made her believe is winning. W...

You have ZERO idea about how Neural Net engines work. Thanks. But if during self play LC0 never move in this position Bg6, from what she knows Bg6 is a good move?

After game 10, Stockfish was two games ahead. Which obviously means the era of Stockfish continues and LZ is hopelessly weak. After game 50 something, LZ is two games ahead, so it's the end of the Stockfish era. Bla bla. With a non-draw-result to games played ratio of about 1 in 5 or whatever it is...

It looks like LZero has an Elo of about 3400. Stockfish has an Elo of about 3400 without a book. If you give Stockfish a very strong book it has an Elo of about 3530. Stephen Pohl has shown that.

(Expecting end of an era in bullet at least) I do not consider it end of an era when the programs do not use equal...

first: will leela run on 1 mhz machine ?
second: does it fit into 32 KB and can it run with only 8 KB RAM ?

You asked for intelligent software. You can't expect anyone to develop new and more intelligent software for your 1MHz machine
