Dec-07-17 AlphaZero - Stockfish (2017) 
| |
| vileblunder: I wouldn't trust any word that ever emanates from Google. If they told me white was white, I would automatically assume that it was actually black. They cannot be trusted. They have so much invested in this. Can you imagine them saying: "well, we tried to get AlphaZero to learn ... |

Jun-27-16 Garry Kasparov
| |
| vileblunder: Garry, you're an excellent chess player. Good on you. Stop commenting on politics in Britain, you have no idea what you're talking about. In fact, stop talking about Western politics altogether, you are completely clueless and ignorant. If you must occasionally remind people ... |

| |
| vileblunder: In terms of Borg's record at the US Open, he played in a very tough era in that particular tournament, because there were a lot of very strong American players, for whom the surface was very familiar, and of course they received huge partisan support. Borg lost his four finals ... |

| |
| vileblunder: With regards to the Kasparov-Kramnik rematch, in the video 'My Story' with James Plaskett, which was filmed shortly before he played Kramnik, Kasparov states that he never had a rematch clause in any of his World Championship matches, because he felt that the challenger has to ... |

May-09-11 Karpov vs Kasparov, 1985
| |
| vileblunder: Thankyou for the information, Eric. Your 'Complete Guide to King Pawn Openings' was the first chess book I ever read, and I'm still playing the Caro-Kann! I've never relished facing the advanced variation, though... |
