Great Post!
1. No book given to Kramnik (not part of the engine).
2. Separate positional and book learning. Kramnik has only the
raw engine + updates.
3. Prepare book and learning for program using PGN from Kramnik games.
4. Have program save all games played by Kramnik and e-mail back to author
so that knowledge can be used to update program, captured in learning.
5. Have personality settings for the program. More attacking, less attacking,
anti-GM, anti-Kramnik, ...
6. Create on the fly personality changes for the program. Kind of a multi-
personality program. This could be manual, semi-automated, or automated.
Personalities not given to Kramnik, just the raw engine.
7. Do a lot of mis-leading minor changes to the program and send to Kramnik,
then do one big bang change at the end that is the final engine.
8. Add a timer to the engine that makes it 50% (or what ever) slower and then
remove the timer in the final release.
Will Kramnik have an 8-way system to practice on, if so, have the program
utilize only one processor (slowly) and then have the final program utilize
all 8.
I am not sure these are ethical, but they may be legal under the rules. :)
9. Hire Christophe Theron to consult with the author of the program or
deliver Chess Tiger 14 as the final version. What a surprise that
would be. ;)
