| Jul-16-10 | | TheFocus: I once dreamed that I would one day become a Grandmaster. But that dream did not come true, so I dreamed of becoming an International master. Didn't happen, so I dreamed of just becoming a Master. Ditto, so I tried to become an Expert.
Something was lacking, so I dreamed of being just a Class I. Guess what? Nada.
So on and on, until I dreamed of just getting a Class WXYZ rating. Then I woke up and found out that I had wet the bed. |

| Jun-09-12 | | PinnedPiece: One ponders why the Deep Thought page at CHessgames has only four pages of thoughts. What makes a thought deep? Is a deep thing desired? A deep valley makes travel difficult, and can separate things... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Om4V...

What makes a thought deep? If you probe into the deepest, furthest recesses of man's physical brain, you enter his reptilian zone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXyp...

What makes a thought deep? The most common phrase in English for being in a deep place is actually rather unpleasant and foul-smelling: I'm in deep d_ _ d_ _ now! http://www.snopes.com/photos/animal...

What makes a thought deep? When we view deep space, we are looking at energy that has taken years or thousands of years to reach us. Does a deep thought take years to appear? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_Ii...

What makes a thought deep for a computer? It has piled lots of calls on a recursion stack, and as often as not, if you are not careful, you crash. http://www.php-security.org/MOPB/MO...

Perhaps deep thinking for me just means pondering questions I can't answer? . |

| Jul-02-13 | | whiteshark: And now something completely off-topic:
"<Deep Thought> was a computer chess machine built at Carnegie-Mellon University in the 1980's. It was a predecessor to Deep Blue, the chess machine that defeated Garry Kasparov in a match. Neither machine exists at this time. <Andreas Nowatzyk> was one of the contributors to the Deep Thought project while he was in grad school. A few years ago when he and I [<Tim Mann>] were both working for Compaq's research labs in Palo Alto, Andreas sent me a copy of Deep Thought's evaluation function tuning program and asked me to put it on the Web for him, since he no longer has an interest in computer chess. http://www.tim-mann.org/deepthought... If you are interested in this material, you can download it here. Please don't ask me questions about it; I had nothing to do with developing it, and I don't have any information beyond what is on this page. Explanation written by Andreas Nowatzyk in January 2000. http://www.tim-mann.org/DT_eval_tun... Code download in tar.gz format. http://www.tim-mann.org/DT_eval_tun...

| Oct-12-15 | | Esauwept: I can't find the supposedly well-annotated games between Kasparov and Deep Blue computer. Does anyone know what game collection they are in? Many thanks |

| Oct-12-15 | | King Radio: The Pandolfini book on the match is pretty good, and it's pretty cheap. |
|
| Nov-04-17 | | TheTamale: I used to think Deep Thought was an incredible machine. Then I noticed something missing... an utter paucity of 10-move demolitions of NN. Deep Thought might be a strong player, but it's no Greco. |
