The issue is then to determine how much of a handicap does the human need to be given in order to equalize the odds. After all, if the computer's main advantage over humans is their speed and capacity of calculation, then a logical way to make the odds more even is to limit the amount of calculation they can do by giving the human a time handicap. I have previously suggested that perhaps a good way to handicap computers to bring them down to the level of humans is by time handicapping. And in a match between a 50-watt consuming laptop running a modern engine and Carlsen, I wouldn't bet on Carlsen. Modern laptops have peak power utilization of about 60 watts and in energy efficient mode probably less. I hope you are all well & in good spirits.ĪylerKupp: If the criteria for equalizing humans and computers in chess playing is based on power and if that limit is around 50 watts, then we are already there. Jeff Bezos' remark raises an interesting possibility: what if we were to limit Chess computers by POWER, limiting them (as he suggests) to 50 watts (or whatever the human limit is). The ancient game of Go is significant (in part) because, by important metrics, it has a greater game complexity than Chess: The Human vs Machine: AlphaGo (Google DeepMind) vs Lee Sedol match received much press coverage: If AlphaGo was limited to 50 watts like us, it would have been crushed." (Jeff Bezos, founder of, as quoted by Silicon Valley legend Bill Gross). "īishopofBlunder: I remember watching "Game Over" and thinking it made Joel Benjamin seem to be a bitter little man with a great hatred for Kasparov.īishopBerkeley: Jeff Bezos: "Humans are VERY efficient. "Saying doesn't really think about chess is like saying an airplane doesn't really fly because it doesn't flap its wings. Offramp: When will computers be able to read lips, like HAL in ? Shams: Or, given Moore's law, it's running a mobile phone OS somewhere. Galdur: Yeah, I guess DB has been trading stocks and maybe managing drones on the side. Shams: The 1997 match was a PR boon for IBM, who declined to offer Garry a rematch (frustratingly, since the match score was tied 1-1) and sold Deep Blue off within the year. But of course chess would be extremely insignificant as corporate interests are concerned. Galdur: And nothing more has been heard of this project since back then. Shams: I like Nate Silver but the chess-related nugget in his new book, "The Signal and the Noise," seems a bit silly. Nemesistic: It tickled me too that quote.Īnd im sure Kasparov once said Deep Blue's attention to king safety was "lousy". Once again I am pleasantly jiggererd by this quote! :D I just think we should look at this as a chess match between the world's greatest chess player, and Garry Kasparov. Fact is that Deep Blue plays according to its output of binary codes lines and you sometimes play like. "In certain situations, plays like a God. "A few months after all the work I did on the, at the US Championship, I thought > "After the defeat, Kasparov wanted to test if the computer also was better at other things" Kasparov says "Look, it can't even swim! Now it has to learn it! Stupid computer!" Sfm: Danish cartoon about Kasparov's loss to Deep Blue. It did not work out because Deep Blue did not have a valid passport JoergWalter: In 1997 the chairman of PSV Turm Duisburg (german chess bundesliga) announced Deep Blue to play on board one of the team. REFINE SEARCH: White wins (1-0) | Black wins (0-1) | Draws (1/2-1/2) | Deep Blue wins | Deep Blue loses Wikipedia article: Deep Blue (chess computer)ī47 Sicilian, Taimanov (Bastrikov) Variation Randy Moulic and C J Tan managed the team. Its knowledge was fine-tuned by the Grandmaster Joel Benjamin, its opening book was supplied by Miguel Illescas Cordoba, John Fedorowicz and Nick de Firmian, and Jerry Brodie and Murray Campbell were also part of the IBM team. Garry Kasparov demanded a rematch which IBM did not accept and IBM retired Deep Blue. It won 3.5-2.5, marking the first time a chess computer has ever beaten a reigning world champion in a match under standard tournament rules and time controls. It was then upgraded and played a six-game match against Garry Kasparov in May of 1997. It won a game against Garry Kasparov on February 10, 1996, marking the first time a chess computer has ever beaten a reigning world champion under regular time controls. Its hardware architecture is somewhat based off of that of Chiptest (Computer). Deep Blue's programming code is written in C and runs under the AIX operating system. Deep Blue is a chess computer designed and produced by the computer company IBM.
