Re: [SPAM] Re: [computer-go] Re: First ever win of a computer against a pro 9P as black (game of Go, 9x9).
I cant recall any offocoal challenges. I do remember some such statement in some other challenge, but failed to google it up. Human computer chess challenges are not likely to happen anymore. What would be the point for human? Hydra could probably beat anyone. And as processors get faster any of top 10 programs in top commercial hardware and beat just about anyone. Why would anyone sponsor such an event. Corresponce chess has also suffered as everyone has access to computers and it pretty hard to prevent cheating. Petri 2009/10/30 Olivier Teytaud olivier.teyt...@lri.fr I think in correpondence chess humans still hold against computers Petri Are there sometimes games organized like that ? This is really impressive to me.

This is really impressive to me. Arno Nickel played three games with Hydra over a few months in 2005. He won 2.5-0.5 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arno_Nickel I doubt much have changed since 2005.

Thanks a lot for this information. This is really very interesting and not widely known. Maybe chess is less closed than I would have believed :-) Olivier Arno Nickel played three games with Hydra over a few months in 2005.
