Since version 3.0 it is an NNUE enabled program! AI and such.
Now to train that AI, I need large amounts of trainingdata. I wrote a program to generate this (distributed over the internet) and currently my friends at @nurdspace are collectively helping my out with that! <3 So cool! At the moment we collectively produce 24 million chess-positions per hour.

haha yes exactly :-)

The program is called Dog, but the release/version is called "Terror Dog", like an extra to the version-number.
