How then is Hydra sees >deeper or is faster than Deep Blue, as is claimed by the authors?? Hydra is available (40 M NPS available). Deep Blue is not (0 M NPS available). Therefore, Hydra is faster than Deep Blue. So is TSCP (if we use the same measure). As far as which program is stronger, we have absolutely no way to know. It would be fun to watch them battle each other. But I think we'll see elephants fly first. Every marketing effort seems to have some amusing statements stapled to it. No need to take them seriously. I think it would be fun it they said Hydra was ten times stronger than Kasparov. Or maybe they should say that Hydra is stronger than Kasparov and Deep Blue put together, with a cherry on top. As long as you can't test it it means nothing. It's not a lie, it's not a truth -- it's a marketing blurb.
