      It's interesting but if you really think about it, Alpha can play like that because it's an engine, it lacks emotions. To play so aggressively right from the start is something that even super gms, I feel, wouldn't feel relaxed with. In this game, Alpha gave up to 4 pawns(!!) just so it can have better mobility. I'm certain that there are players who can control themselves but in general, while aggressiveness is human nature, so is the instinct of survival. And I believe that even that can be truly seen in a chess game. While everyone longs to play interesting and aggressive chess, I think that for most people, it would be nerve-racking to proceed so willingly to sacrifices without gaining as exchange something more concrete other than "better mobility". And it's not like Alpha's sacrifices pay out in the short term; it really takes much of intuition and somewhat of emotional- distancing to play like that (from a human perspective).

You can force a position where the bishop is better than the knight much more often than vice verca, so the knight is (in my opinion) inferior.
      also the bishop can travel faster, can control more squares and doesn't suffer nearly as much from being badly placed.

    Having watched Alpha's games, I think it's a lot easier to understand that Alpha correctly adjusts a pawn's value as it moves across the board. The earlier and the further the pawn makes its trek across the board, the more value that pawn has than the pawn that has literally not moved the whole game, will not move but maybe one space defensively until the end game, and which can do nothing to stop anything else on the board. AlphaZero, knowing nothing of piece valuations, comes up with its own based on its understanding of what wins and how it happens, and its valuations are "more correct," and so its first principles, being entirely different but measurably slightly better, seeks a different move set which is aggressive and sees deep pawn trades or move combinations which end up with a deep pawn or passed pawn as a form of choking your opponents' position. An unaccountable deep pawn is a future queen, and that, by anyone's measure, is worth more than 1 point, and sometimes more than 3, even if not yet queen depending on the inevitability, and AlphaZero exploits this in a way you know in your soul is correct but is hard to fully measure, at least for me.
    I've read a few of the comments. One correctly describes humans as having "more self-preservation than Alpha. I think self-preservation is entirely what it's trying to take advantage of. It wants you to spend moves, pieces and time trying to protect what it has already calculated you will lose, and waste more pieces doing it than you would've lost, and if it has to get one, two or even 3 pawns out of its own way to do it, it will do it, especially if it can do it with its own deep pawns versus your stifled pawns. It has the extreme arrogance to presume that if you play a pin down to its final conclusion, it should result not in a favorable trade, but in full on zugzwang.

    • @jeffreyhuang3814
      @jeffreyhuang3814 3 роки тому +9

      I remember Morphy once claimed that control of certain squares in certain openings should count for points. Ie, +1.5 for overprotecting e5 as white. +1.7 for placing a knight there.
      Your idea of increasing a pawn's value as it marches across the board is very interesting.
      Some more criteria to consider:
      If two pawns are connected in a chain, and the more advanced one is unopposed by any pawns and on the 5th rank, then add 6 points. If the further unopposed pawn is on the sixth rank and is still connected, add 9 points. If on the seventh, start looking for mate in N.
      Exceptions:
      If the pawns are unopposed by other pawns they can still be blocked by pieces. A pawn that is blocked by a knight is less valuable than a pawn blocked by a rook.
      Unopposed pawns are increasingly valuable the fewer pieces the opponent has.
      If two pawns are connected and unopposed, then you have a 9-point advantage if the further one is on the sixth rank. If the further one is on the seventh rank, start searching for mate in N.
      If three pawns are connected and unopposed, the game is won, even if the opponent has a bishop for the three pawns.
      Suppose the black king is on e7, you have a pawn on e6, and a pawn on f7. The game is won. If black takes on e6, the f-pawn promotes.
      Advanced and unopposed pawns can become worthless, instantly drawing the game, if a special position is reached that compromises the game. Read into Philidor, Vancura, Lucena positions.
      The pawn also becomes worthless if the defending side can create a fortress. There is no way for the attacker to win, and can only force stalemate. The pawn may be on the sixth rank but it will never march the remaining two ranks.
      In lines where white plays against the sicilian dragon, English attack, a furious attack begins against the black king. This does not usually result in the king being mated. But at some point white has a choice.
      A pawn on h5 can capture the g6 pawn. Capture to open lines for the mating attack, or push to h6? Frequently, white will push to h6. This is called the positional style. Should the h7 pawn ever fall, queening would be just around the corner. As a result black is tied down to guard said pawn, limiting piece activity. In such a case, the h6 pawn must be valued much higher than 1 point.
      Bonus: Did you know that modern European theory gives the value of a rook at 4.5 instead of 5? Think back to the last time you had a queen vs 2 rooks game. If there were multiple loose pawns on the board for you to pick up, then you won, as the rooks were too clumsy to coordinate. If the position was almost completely locked up with only a few open files, then their rooks infiltrated by force and won the game. If the rooks were passive and only defended pawns, you won. If the queen was passive and only defended pawns, you lost.
      Half the time, a queen is better than two rooks, so rook value was adjusted to be 4.5.
      Edit:
      ua-cam.com/video/peyW-jGXIOI/v-deo.html
      A properly defended bishop pair outclasses the queen, especially if there are no pawns on the four central squares. Bishop pair, plus 4. Bishop pair, defended by active rook or knight, with unopposed central control, plus 8 (esp if it can escort a pawn).

    Finally learnt chess. Can't believe that I was playing wrong all that time. I thought pushing pawns in front of king was not good as it exposed king but I missed that castling my king behind pawns already on 4th and 5th rank was winning.

      "Finally learnt chess. Can't believe that I was playing wrong all that time."
      I was taught chess at one point when I was young, but I vaguely recall Castling as an actual move, I especially never heard of En Passant when I was a kid. so that tells you how much I knew before coming into this channel. Castling does look like a made-up move as an excuse, to get the King into the corner. I amuse myself by picturing the King and Rook doing a dance around each other as they get to their squares. ;)

    The reason people love watching Alpha Zero so much is because human players constantly try to imitate engines. Alpha is the one that is doing things differently, doing new interesting things, destroying the meta so to speak. The desire to watch humans act as subpar engines is much less vs. watching Alpha, who is honestly playing more human-like, just on a much higher level.

    I am always amazed how little AlphaZero seems to care about being down several pawns.

It’s almost like Alpha is playing a different game

    Even in these supercomputer matches, I'd love to see you expand on some lines which may initially seem like a fine idea. For example, when watching this video at 12:31 I initially thought "that's not that bad if you can trade your queen for the 2 rooks while giving check", until I saw the third move in 1. Qc6 Rxg1 2.Qxh6 Rxc1+ 3. Bxc1 a second later.
    12:47 doesn't necessarily look like the ultimate winning position for white either. Simply execute the same idea; 1. Bd4 Rxg1 then either 2. Qxh6 Rxc1+ or 2. Bxg1 Qxc6 3. Rxc6 .. seems kind of okay for black (at least on the surface).
    I had the same feeling a bit earlier in the video; at the position in 4:17, I would think e5 is a fine move that counters everything you mentioned in the video. For example: 1. .. e5 2. c5 dxc5 3. dxe5 Nxe5 4. Qxc5 Nf3+ 5. Bxf3 Qxb2 seems fine for black, so that would be an interesting line to see explained in this video.
    I understand that the game played here is WAYYYYYY more advanced than I can possibly understand, but it would be very interesting to see some lines that are now glossed over as "black not being to be able to do anything else" still explained in a bit more detail.
