DeepMine has been trained to play chess. They call the program
AlphaZero. Only given the rules of chess it had to experiment by random trial and errors games with itself. After 4 hours traning it was matched against the best chess engine in the world; Stockfish. After 100 games, AlphaZero won 28 and lose zero time, with 72 draws
For those not initiated this is quite impressive. As quoted form
Chess.com:
"This would be akin to a robot being given access to thousands of metal bits and parts, but no knowledge of a combustion engine, then it experiments numerous times with every combination possible until it builds a Ferrari."
Which is similar to the
junkyard tornado argument creationists like to use to "disprove"evolution. It is like DeepMind's AlphaZero learned to plays chess similar to a tornado in a junkyard would create a Boeing 747. I know some Creationist now will claim the AlphaZero been made by an intelligent designer. I grant that, but it misses the point; AlphaZero still had to figure out but itself, by random trial and errors, how to play chess on super human level.
I am curios what take creationist have on this;
if randomness cannot create design, no matter what time is given, then what did cause AlphaZero to achieve a superhuman performance in chess in less than four hours time?
