    It's fascinating to me that Stockfish was still rating itself favorable when the light square bishop was trapped and not contributing. I think the people who program it are going to have to seriously reevaluate their algorithms after this series, to appreciate certain positional deficits for what they are.

    • @AndrewBlechinger

      Well, you have to understand, chess is so complex that to brute force solve it would require more information than the universe is capable of holding. (10^120 positions, 10^80 observable particles.) So you have to use heuristics. And sometimes that leads to valuing material even though it doesn't do anything.

    I think this game out of the 10 demonstrates the most how differently alpha zero plays from a normal engine. Its saying to itself that my position in the future will be good even though its not at the time it sacs the pawn, like a human player it thinks this "must" be good I just dont see it yet.Very much like Go where the player is trying to set up favourable conditions on board.

      @raygordonteacheschess5501 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      That just means that humans are not playing correctly. If you read the Encyclopedia of Chess Middlegames (ECM), temporary imbalances in material due to a trapped piece occur all the time. It's like a power-play in hockey. Most humans just lack the technique to pull it off on the level of an AlphaZero, but that will one day not be the case. A human can recognize the smothered mate instantly. What we're seeing is that the computers understand calculus while the humans have barely solved algebra. That too will change. A human should be able to draw every game and one day will, in part thanks to what the computers are teaching us. I've already resumed my old style of "Tal" like sacrifices that I had assumed Stockfish proved were unsound, but which actually are sound, just above the level of even a 3300-rated machine.

    Watching the structure slowly shift to favor A0 is crazy. Such a subtle progression, but by move 18 the effects of the pawn structure are brutal. I see that happen to me when I play better players, but usually it's not as radical as this, where black's bishop is completely cut off from play.

    At 8:25 (black to move) what's wrong with pawn f5 forking the knight and queen? White could capture on f6 with either the pawn (en passant) or the knight (checking the king). Either way after the exchanges the queen and the rook (black) would form a nice battery on an uncontested half-open f file.

      You make a good point. It will be more difficult for human players to detect the kind of style indicative of cheating at first glance; however, cheaters on chess websites such as lichess are caught using statistical analysis. Admins look at how often the computer agrees with their moves and simply applies t-tests to reveal cheaters.
      The kind of machinery used by google's deep mind is too specialized and powerful to be commercially available in the foreseeable future, so it is unlikely that we'll see cheaters using alphazero specifically. But I am excited to see the improvements the stockfish community makes to their engine, even if they continue to use search algorithms and opening books instead of deep neural nets.
      Exciting times in the world of chess engines.

      Indeed, I hope a standard Chess engine prevails over this A0 soon. Even though my guess is that A0-style of AI is superior to the standard Stockfish one in the long run. I hope that a a standard stockfish can beat A0 soon.

      Me being me Aren't you just punishing people for good chess, in that case? It basically would become impossible for a real upset to occur in chess, because they must have cheated- and that would take a lot of the fun out of things.

      I never liked chess engines to be honest, ugly chess , I do however like A0's chess there is artistry apparent there

    The "bad bishop" is a well known concept that doesn't require a computer to exploit. Many human players have played sacrifices like the one AZ played but not with this level of technique.

    What a cage that was that black was forced into making for his own bishop ! Dude got locked down *tight* !

  • @digitalatom6433

    11:30 what if instead of Qd8 we have Ra3 (not a2, a3) threatening to take that bishop. If the bishop moves to say b2 Rb3 or even c3. If bishop to e4 the rook can take that bishop (on c3) and if the queen is taken the rook falls with check and the bishop is picked up afterwards with a dangerous past pawn. (winning a net piece) If after Re3 something like Be1 (now Be4 is a legitimate threat) Qb3 seems like a good idea with a future of moves like Qb2 and c3. It's a lot more active play from black to be sure.

    I have a question related to 8:10 of the video why black didn't play the pawn on F7 to F5

  • @JecIsBec
    @JecIsBec 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Quick question at 11:02
    Why wouldn't white just push Bishop to h7?
    Bishop h7, Black King takes, White Queen takes f7, if the rook comes out to defend the black-tile bishop, then either queen could take the pawn or the rook could push to the a-file and work from there... I assume there's a reason but can someone point it out?

    Why can't black play F5 forking the bishop and the queen at 13:09 or even better at 13:45? 🤔

    Move 53 (22:08 in the video), why isn't Pawn to f5 the better move?

  • @jurjenvanderhoek316
    @jurjenvanderhoek316 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    At 8:41 the commentator suggests Qc7 as an option for black, but it seems to me that white will punish that with Nxe6! After fxe6 Qxe6+ follows, and then the white queen takes the bishop on e7, thus winning a pawn

  • @brightlamp2549

  • @iwersonsch5131
    @iwersonsch5131 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    My plan as black at move 14 (7:23) would have been Qc7, Nd7, at some point long castles, and maybe actually c5. No danger on the kingside anymore, all targets are gone

  • @Edamori
    @Edamori 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    At 8:30, Why doesn't black play f5, winning the knight and opening up the rook file? Is there a defence against this I am not seeing?

  • @cmck362
    @cmck362 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    At 8:50 is it possible to completely ignore the attack on the bishop and play Nb6. You'll be giving away the bishop for free, but it's already a dead piece. Obviously this isn't good, but as a practical try it doesn't seem bad.

  • @k27ism
    @k27ism 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I dunno why, but i was first scared at how good Alpha0 is at chess and at go, something like this with its ways of playing, to me is very intimidating just thinking of playing against, how can you best something that is already 12 moves ahead of your current move variation. But now i realize that this is an opportunity to learn from something as smart as it! Analysing, discussing and dissecting its movements, has enabled viewers to be able to learn to improve their games.

  • @PierLu_77
