      It's a good reminder to have.
      We used to consider engines stronger when they had the opening libraries loaded (i remember the older fritz playing book moves until move 30+ when playing against itself), but since engines are nowadays used to study newer (and better) lines in openings, they really redefine what is best theory in openings

    I'd love to see you play against Stockfish 15 with various handicaps, to see what it takes for you to beat it.
    1) Start with queen odds, and increase the handicap until you win a game.
    2) Then do a round where time control is the handicap - fight S15 with one one *milli*second per move, and see how that goes, maybe cut it further from there. (No time limits on your side, of course.)
    3) Have a round with no handicap, but where you can switch sides with it once, and try to win from its side of the table. (No throwing pieces pre-switch, and no waiting until forced mate - try honestly, and then switch when you think it has a big enough advantage for you to win.)
    4) And of course, for the control group, play against it without any handicaps at all.

    • @Etholux
      @Etholux Год назад +4

      If you have a positional advantage against Stockfish 15, the engine will at least draw every game unless there is a forced checkmate, and it doesn't seem like a human could ever pull a forced checkmate situation out of a drawable position that Stockfish wouldn't see coming.
      If you start giving Stockfish time limits, you are just making it a worse engine, so you might as well play against the earlier versions.

      If you let it run a few seconds longer, it will evaluate it as +0.6, and the stronger Stockfish version as about +0.4, so it's actually not a bad opening. Even Stockfish needs some time to think, at least on an average laptop.
