Go up one level in this thread


Chances are against ever solving chess let alone calculating over 10^120
A recent post mentioned 64bit processors they might help figure out the number
but still if they are twice as fast as your average cpu it would either take a
better algorithm or some heavy duty AI. Speaking of which natural language
programing languages (i don't know if they are in existence yet) couldn't you
just tell the program how to play a better game than just counting positions?

For example lets start a list of things that are difficult for top programs.
this would work in only game play unfortunately not solving the amount of
positions, but this is probably something of more interest and concern.
