    I have no idea, people keep on talking about China, India, Mexico etc, when machines and AI take over is just around the corner.

    It seems like should be an inverse graph where human compassion and understand of each other goes downward vs the growth of computers; all this AI and such...how's it going to play out with folks who cannot afford it or don't want it in their lives? Or what kind of impact will it have on preexisting mental conditions in humans? And I think the real threat to humanity is what's going on @ CERN, talk of opening gateways to other dimensions or even the door to 'hell'..:eek:

    Edit:
    100 game match versus 2016 top chess engine Stockfish 8:
    AlphaZero won 28 times, lost 0 times, and drew 72 times.

    AlphaZero as white:
    25 wins and 25 draws

    AlphaZero as black:
    3 wins and 47 draws

    I am 99.9% sure as AI advances, it will be used in military planning and corporate decision making, Can you imagine the armies of robots being directed by AI command centers in wars in the not too distant future? We are closer to terminator than we thought, google or amazon might very well be the skynet.

    Actually Alpha Zero just needs more time to learn, remember this is FOUR HOURS of learning, FOUR HOURS!

    Poorly. I played a bit when I was a kid. My mind can not think far enough ahead to be any good.

    That 4100 rating is stunning. The current world champion is rated at about 2900.
