Go up one level in this thread
Think that there is a great crisis in computer chess at the moment. Why? Major aims are achieved - programs are better than 99% of chess players - comp can beat top level player in matches first proved by Deep Blue with an enormous costs now Hydra much cheaper next question will be, when this can be proved with "normal" server hardware, then desktop or laptop. The "commercials" have realized that there is no chance to earn money with better playing engines (~30-50 Elo more between two versions are not really a sales argument for bigger groups of buyers), so they decided to use other fields (eg. online server). As well I say: Congratulations Anthony, you did the impossible and so convincing. Hagra
