Mar-02-09 | | dwojiow: Can Rybka find human moves?
Here is a typical Bishops of Opposite Colour position: White to play.  click for larger viewWe humans can see immediately that this is an easy draw; White just shuffles his Bishop around, defending the h5 pawn if necessary. A more stylish - more human - way to claim the draw instantly is to play the move 1.h6!, point being that after 1...gxh6 Black has the "Wrong Bishop". White puts his Bishop on the a8-h1 diagonal, ready to sacrifice when the pawn moves to f3; and then he moves his king to h1, from where he can never be removed. Could one of you Rybka 3 users please analyse the above position with the engine in its various analysis modes. Does Rybka 3 find the draw in infinite analysis? (I can tell you that Junior 9 does not, evaluating at -0.43 after a long think). What about Monte Carlo? How long does it take and does the engine prefer 1.h6! |

Apr-03-09 | | Mate Hunter: Is there a x64 8CPU version of Rybka availible yet? If there isn't, there should be. Nowadays Intel's Core i7 isn't very popular (around 1 % market share), but when i7 will recieve a price cut in this summer, sales are expected to pick up. In 2010/2011, I except Core i7 to be what Core 2 was in 2006/2007. Therefore calculating programs, like Rybka, should sooner or later develop a new version that uses twice the number of threads as the previous versions, to maximize the programs functionability. I think summer 2009 would be the perfect time to release an eventual upgraded Rybka-version, specially optymized for 8CPU:s, because this will be tomorrow's standard anyway, and the 4CPU-versions came out way before C2Q became dominant in the mid-high end range. If they won't do it, someone else will, and they'll lose the position as the best chess computer. Someone have to lead the innovation. General note: 64+ core CPU:s have existed since some time now, but they have never been mainstream. The reason why this should be done is because the mayority will have such CPU:s (i5 or better) in 2010/2011, or maybe 2012, but not later. ***SPEC NOTES***
The i7 doesn't have 8 psysical cores, but hyper threading enables the operating system to use each core as two processors instead of one, thus scaling 8 threads of the 4 cores. Core 2 Quad has the same number of cores, but half the number of threads. Core i7 alone will never be what Core 2 currently is, sales wise, becuase i7 lacks a low-end model. Core i5 will basicly be a gimped i7 for the lower-end market, which will be like today's low end Core 2's. When I said i7 above, I meant i7 + i5, because they use the same structure. Just like there are Core 2 Duos and Quads, there will be i7:s and i5:s, as well as Extreme Editions in both cases. |

Apr-25-09 | | timhortons: Rybka3 help me alot in understanding the game of GM's.I'm usually log at playchess.com with rybka running as i follow the game and as well log at ICC listening to GM's commenting the game. GM at ICC like "Lodachnik" anton kovalyov is very helpfull in explaining what's happening on board as he kibitz together with other observers. |

May-04-09 | | Solon: This is weird. After 1.e4e5 2.Nf3d6 3.d4exd4 4.Nxd4Nf6 5.Nc3Be7 6.g3!?0-0 7.Bg2Re8 8.0-0Bf8 9.h3c6...  click for larger view
Rybka recommends 10.Rb1, a novelty of course. Now, g4 has become standard fare for White in different openings, but b4 is for some reason almost never played (Evans gambit). Maybe Rybka will change all that. |

May-13-09 | | Dionyseus: Rybka won the WCCC Open (no hardware limit) today with a perfect 5/5 score. It is my understanding that this is the development version of Rybka 4. Rybka used 52 cores, and as far as I understand it was the second strongest hardware, strongest was Deep Sjeng's 56 cores. Time control was game in 60 plus 10 seconds a move.
