Humans Hold Off the Machines... For Now

Posted by michael on from the only-a-matter-of-time dept.

Murr writes "The six game match between Gary Kasparov and the Deep Junior program ended in a draw today. Kasparov won game 1 and lost game 3 to a blunder, while the other 4 games were drawn. While the quality of play was not outstanding, after the recent matches of Kramnik and Kasparov against commercial programs running on (high end) commodity hardware, it's becoming apparent that chess programs are getting quite competitive with top human players."

    The computer and humans both use scripted moves which are sure to produce draws, look at those games.

    Gary did win game 1 but he knew he couldnt beat deep blue in real chess, his best strategy was to play stiff chess the whole game following scripted precise opening, midgame and closing moves and only making maybe one real move in each game.

    It worked in the first game, it failed in the rest of the games because the computer figured out his strategy.

    Kasparov is a dumb ass. I bet I could beat him in 15 moves or less. I played against a kid in Florida who claimed he sucked at chess and I lasted over 30 moves before losing. So I could definitely beat Kasparov with half my brain tied behind my back.
