It's exactly the same software. The only difference is that is
running on 23 cores. I am amazed at how well MCTS scales on 19x19.
Looking forward to desktop machines with thou

It would be interesting to know how well Pachi scales on KGS against
ranked humans vs a sing

It's actually 24 cores but I'm leaving 1 core free for the OS and other
background tasks. The chips are commercially available, search for
"6 cores" or "24 cores" on your favorite search engine.

Yes it would be interesting but it's a bit difficult to run this experiment.
The software and its parameters is constantly changing. We can't
create a new kgs bot for every new version

I'm not being critical of anything that has already been presented, I just
have not seen it myself and I've been pretty busy working on chess so my
focus is not currently on this.
But I look forward to reading the paper if it's public. (I'm not going to
buy the paper.)

Hello Petr,
thx for the diagram.
A few question for clarification:
Does RAVE mean pachi-with-RAVE?
Does RAVE-linkomi mean pachi-with-RAVE-linkomi?
Did all three bots (GNUGO, RAVE, RAVE-linkomi) have the same (weak)
opponent in these experiments?
Who was this "common" opponent?
Was this on 19x19?
Hi!

Is this 23 cores SMP working on the same tree, or four by 6-cores? I'm
running a cluster of four 4-core 2.3 GHz machines, using MPI to share the
core of the trees a few times a second.
The results between zen-1c, mfgo-16c and pachi-23c are interesting.
Zen wins about 60% against many faces

You are right in the sense that I was not precise enough
in my statement. Here comes a new attempt.
I have three players A, B, C.

Assume for simplicity that both A and B have a 50 % winning chance
for each single game against C.
