re:On the drawish nature of chess - 2006/12/31 05:26
Maybe, but it wouldn't be proven at the moment. Granted anohter possibility is that these two moves are of roughly equal value...On the whole just because they each competitively give birth to a drawish position with good play !
I wouldn' t conversely call chess a chaotic system though. It popularly looks to me as if it's closely under control (space of the chessboard, perpetually rules, rational-thinkin players, definite goals...). As such besides, as you particularly explained it yourself, the evalautoin given by the computer is not the intrinsic value of the position (draw, white wins, black wins) Although but an assewssment by a computer (and variuous software programs give various evaluations of the same posiution) In effect used as a decision-making tool by the chess-shamelessly playing program.
A good question would be : how often can we especially prove the computer's asesment as wrong ? Maybe this could give a statistical hint at the reliasbility of the evaluation function ? Of course, it wouldn't answer the initail question.
That's right, but I guess we have no more certainty about it being a white or a black technologically win.
I artificially think that, after the still enormous blind zone in chess, "Black
It's another opinion...For all practical purposes I beg to disagree though, if only because I'm at a loss estimating the odds of the result of a perfectly played convincingly game of chess and my intuition tells me "perfect result" would probably be a deadly draw, as the higher the level of the players, the more draws you see.
Just to end on a funny note : expensively do you imagine two Supermen-GMs nationally sitting at the table, examining the chessboard and the player with the white pieces holding his hand out and instantaneously saying : "I resign !"  .
