Looking at how the ELO rating of a chess program accelerated is informative to understanding how AI is likely to go, if not more exponetially.

EDIT: CHECKERS computer, not chess - typo!
I'm a lesser player but my impression is almost everyone learned and played online and trained using software.
So my grandpa was remaking some of his games with the computer on a chessboard and every time computer or him made a move computer was marking it [like this] and the same way TWM was speaking (I also got some of the pages with his games(
but they probably are good at eu4
How can they have beginners, intermediate and experts? What settings change?
Hello! I would like to share with you my Github project which enables you to use your real life chess board for online chess playing. It transmits moves made on your chess board to the online game via webcam and computer vision techniques.

For a computer, testing out millions of potential moves is trivial for it to do on every turn. But humans don't have the processing power to process millions of moves on every turn, so what is it the human mind is doing to be able to determine what it believes is a good move to play, if it isn't being done by brute force?
Intro (Do not need to read): I recently was messing around with some chess software and I decided I would start a youtube channel where I kind of comment over the "chess computer" playing itself, you can check it out by clicking the link.

Main Point: When messing around with chess software what I found interesting was how computers work. I mean the concept is fascinating especially in relation to chess, like why would two computer opponents not always bring each other to a draw? Or why out of two computer opponents would the first one who moves not be the one who wins since they are the same computer? I mean it's almost human in a sense. But it brought me even more questions, like where do computers sit in relation to human players nowadays? I remember reading somewhere that Kasparov played a chess computer 5 times, (Deep Blue was the name of the computer) he won the first round, he lost the second and drew the last three. Would that happen now or do there exist computers that could beat any human no matter how good or how much at the peak of their game? Have computers surpassed humans in chess and if so is the best we can hope for is to bring a game to a draw or is this too much to hope for in itself? If computers aren't already better than humans how much time before they are?
TLDR: How do computers play chess against each other without the first mover winning or always bringing the game to a draw? What is future of chess computers in relation to humanity have they already surpassed us?
Hey all
I have a son who has started playing chess and is picking it up very quickly. I'd like to buy a chess computer for him to use to as a learning tool and came across Millennium chess computers which look excellent but I have no experience using them.
Millennium Chess Computer - The King Performance
Does anyone have an experience using this computer as a learning tool or have any recommendations for a computer for a bright player to start with? I know Millenium also have a Chess Genius PRO model which is more beginner focused but I don't like the look of it and read many comments about it's build quality. Is the The King Performance model as rich in learning features as the cheaper model or it is for the stronger player.
I know that many sites like Lichess, chess.com have courses and he can play with others but I also want a nice board too for OTB games with friends and family.
Thanks
Should they be republished with corrections in footnotes? Are they marred by these errors that most likely no one would have detected without an engine anyway?
For instance I learned to play attacking chess in my youth by studying 'Frank Marshall's Best Games of Chess', which Marshall wrote in 1942s. But upon looking at some of the games and their annotation with an engine today, I can see some of his variations are busted by the engine. (On the other hand he has ideas in his variations that are accurate but that the engine doesn't 'understand' initially.) Likewise there is a ton of othrr classic chess literature from the 20th century that falls in this category.
Also one of the advantages of old chess books is that they are in the public domain and are free electronically or cheap from publishers like Dover. New editions with notes and corrections jacks the price up to the cost of a new chess book.
