The fact that Hikaru talks 3rd person at the beginning is sending me to a realm I thought was for the shadows…

[djarpen]

0:10 "In human matchups we know Magnus has done very well against Hikaru" That actually made me crack up and roll on the floor for a good 30 seconds.

*Props to this man for analysing those tricky moves. You're qualified to go Pro* 🐐🍷

This guy can analyze Hikaru bot's moves so well. I bet he's watched a lot of Hikaru's matches.

It’s so inspiring to see Hikaru Bot’s confidence against Magnus Bot grow over time

[pradyumnarout]

Man
That guy knows his stuff
Might have a career in chess

Hikaru Bot: Enable Disrespect. Puts on sunglasses.

[Coenngthing]

Imagine Magnus learning hikarus play style through his videos

I love how Hikaru informs hikaru bot as a bot of another person

Playing with these chess bots I want to add in some details.

1. It seems like the Hikaru bot has been varying in strength. At one point it beat the maximum engine, Mittens, and play Magnus with ease.

For reference, it takes Stockfish 15 at depth 9 to beat them. It took DEPTH 12 stockfish to beat Hikaru. Which is about a difference of ~200 elo.

2. Hikaru isn't the only bot. Playing against the Fabiano bot and it drew with the max engine every time in 16 matches.

3. Play Magnus seems more likely to play as Magnus in a classical game. Although I do suspect that if the bot were to play Magnus during the WCC, I'd suspect the bot would lose, slightly.

I am curious if Hikaru is actually weaker than the bot in a classical game. I would love to see a match in that case. I have the feeling Hikaru would be the stronger

The bot is probably equal to him around a 10 minute game

From a statistical perspective (the ELO is a statistical measure), the draw was the most likely to happen in a 3000 vs 2850 match, especially if 2850 moves the white pieces. However, something more interesting to analyze is playing about 1000 times alternating colors and checking if the hypothetical ELO is really into the program, or simply ever wins the same bot (theoretically, the 2850 bot must win a few times in 1000 matches, but, to my knowledge, big blunders are not considered in these bots).

I love how hikaru speaks about himself, and now, about bots of himself!

[Cameron_Maguire]

This man is amazing at analysing, maybe he will enter some tournaments in the future.

Still waiting Hikaru Nakamura vs Hikaru Nakamura bots

[MeiLiuSection]

Hikaru the whole game: “I don’t know the logic to why Hikaru bot would play pawn F3, I personally would have double stacked my rooks”

[dsamurai]

12:35 just amawzing how fast Hikaru can calculate this line

[joshuahenry]

Only 1 minute into the video and already loving it keep up the great work Hikaru!

[rodiko]

I remember that it was much fun watching Hikaru ranting when Komodo smashed Hikaru in 10 games (that picture of the komodo vs Hikaru video where Hikaru's jaw was dropped was also hilarious :D). This game was very boring though; watching two strong bots playing out a perfect dry draw. While Stockfish or Leila often try to unbalance and complicate the game, making crazy sacrifices when they play somewhat inferior engines.

These Hikaru bot and Magnus bot dudes seem pretty good at chess, they should go pro
