First I like to say that Phalanx is much waeker than CM8000.Secondly I said chess as pratically solved ;which is a far cry from from it being actually solved.Thirdly the analysis by Phalanx proves nothing.At the slowest time control which is 40/2 the program has only an average of 3 minutes to see that Nxg6 actually wins .It should have at least a plus 1 pawn evaluation or more after 3 min.Also the full analysis of why Nxg6 is winning is 19 plys deep.Even DeepBlue could not not reach 19 plys in 3 minutes. Fourthly you claim if Phalanx did reach a certain point if would play e6 and not exd6 but you offer no proof.The point here is that programs DONOT understand the Position after 19.Nxg6.And hence do not see the winng lines all the way to the end .And this DOES MATTER.
