Completely agree that Kasparov was on to something with Advanced Chess. The first iteration of the idea failed to gain traction but that was more due to cumbersome tech (players staring at desktops playing slow games, not much of a spectator sport) than to the idea itself. I’m prototyping some ideas in this space with a team of hackers/chess enthusiasts. Ping me if interested in contributing or beta testing, contact info in my profile.
- jobigoud 8y agoI think it has been shown since then that for modern computer chess engine the human member of the centaur team is always detrimental. It's strictly superior to systematically ignore the human suggestions.
- mindgam3 8y agoInteresting, I'm not aware of this but conclusively shown, but please provide a link to back that up as I'm certainly curious. That said, if you do centaur blitz or bullet chess using over the board pieces, not computer move input, I'm fairly certain that the skill of the human player will be a factor :-)
