The Real #2 Chess Engine

[Mark Tang]

I happened to come across a ranking list that I had never seen before, which is called ICCRL (https://www.iccrl.org/rankings). And on the rank, I noticed an engine called Gillespie is #2, stronger than Torch and is only 1 elo behind Stockfish 17.1. Checking its official website([link no longer active]), The author [name removed] wrote Gillespie employs a Mixture of Experts (MoE) NNUE architecture with five specialized neural networks, each trained on billions of positions from specific game phases,(seems like Cerberus on SPCC)which interests me a lot. Can anyone get this chess engine from the author and send it to me please？

I imagine the list is fake, because I have not provided Torch to any such list.

So it probably only exists to promote "Gillespie". Which itself sounds like its not an actual original work, just running 5 engines at once, and at that point you're basically just running Stockfish with extra steps.

A shame though, the site has a nice layout to it.
