  • @DiMono
    @DiMono 7 лет назад +75

    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
      @AndrewBlechinger 3 года назад +2

      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.

      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.

    I wonder if self-learning AI could turn into a problem for chess, in that it'd be more difficult to catch cheaters; if new, better AI make more human-like moves and decisions, it may be more difficult to catch what would previously be obvious engine moves.

    • @ThatGuyE1M1
      @ThatGuyE1M1 7 лет назад +13

      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.

    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.

    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.

  • @jurjenvanderhoek316
    @jurjenvanderhoek316 7 лет назад

    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

  • @iwersonsch5131
    @iwersonsch5131 6 лет назад

    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

    wow, alpha-zero is a pro at freezing bishops behind their own pawns. what an interesting way to gain an advantage

  • @digitalatom6433
    @digitalatom6433 7 лет назад

    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.

    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?

    14:06 I would exchange queens and sac my e pawn by advancing it. This would activate my light squared bishop. It's still losing at this level because you're down a pawn, but it's better to sacrifice a pawn and get a minor piece into the game. F6 pawn doesn't pose a major threat anytime soon with the queens off.

  • @ulicqueldromal

    I would be curious to hear you thoughts on the stockfish suggestions shown on the right. Sometimes they differ from what stockfish in the game does but also the moves are not discussed by you as bad moves. E.G. at 11:30 it suggest Ra3, with a depth of 27.

    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.
