    The "best move" is only the best if you have perfect execution at every point of the game, and many AI-determined "best moves" seem to thrust the game into a state of confusion no human can understand. Are there AI tools that have a focus on explaining the state of the game in human terms, instead of "this move is 78%, this move is 79%." ?

      Please note that I'm not attempting to claim that Go is superior to Chess. It simply demands more strategic foresight and the sheer number of potential moves at any given moment in the game... well, it's staggering.

    I heard that go has balance of strategy and tactics
    however, chess is more tactical and less strategic
    Is it because of the size of the board?
    Because I guess in the smaller board in go, tactics are more than strategies .

    • @GoMagic
      @GoMagic  Před 26 dny

      Yes, Go board is very large and players need to think through how events in one part of it will affect another part.

    • @SD-bv5gc
      @SD-bv5gc Před 26 dny

      it's interesting! But is it all about board size? I know that a bigger board size definitely increases the strategy in go and chess but Except this, not possible that the fast movements of the chess pieces (except the pawns) reduce the strategy in chess ? And the slow movements of the stones in go increase the strategy in go? And if this is not true (And only the size of the board affects the strategy and tactics in go and chess)
      does it mean that strategy increases as the size of the chess board increases? (and chess will be a balance of strategy and tactics) and does strategy decrease as the size of the go board decreases? (and go becomes more tactical and less strategic)

    • @GoMagic
      @GoMagic  Před 24 dny +1

      It's not an easy question tbh. Wall of text incoming!
      Yes, the size of the board plays a significant role in both Go and (probably) in chess. I'm not sure about chess though, since we play chess on the same size board. But probably a larger board in chess would mean more squares and potentially more complexity, as each piece can move across more possibilities. In Go, a larger board (such as the traditional 19x19) also increases the complexity, as there are more intersections where stones can be placed, leading to a richer array of strategies. A smaller board simplifies the game, reducing the depth of strategic planning needed and possibly increasing the tactical interactions, as each move has a more immediate impact on the game's outcome.
      As for the piece movement... Probably. Fast movement of some pieces in chess create more opportunities for swift strikes. This can sometimes emphasize tactics over longer-term strategy. In contrast, in Go stones are placed permanently, and such slow, incremental placement emphasizes a more strategic approach.
      So I'd say you're right. Both the size of the board and the "speed" of the pieces affect the balance between strategy and tactics. However, the board sizes for both of these games are standard, and the pieces move differently, so we have what we have.

      ​@GoMagic
      thanks ! that was great information
      Actually, there is infinite chess now(infinite board)
      and this makes me think that
      The depth of Go game on the infinite board will be unimaginable! ( Getting points with the finite parts of the board that we have taken and getting points from the capturing opponent's stones
      The game ends when one of the players reaches the number of points chosen by both sides(naviary))
      I hope one day infinite go will be made
      This is one of the things that must be experienced before death !

    AI doesn't think in the same categories as us humans.
    It can take a very risky path that is worth only and only in case of perfect play.
    So when we try to play more AI-like moves that supposedly lead to an advantage we might not know that this advantage is of a highest precision and can be ruined by one imperfection.
    We make moves that give us bigger chances of winning by making our position better so there is less room for a blunder.
    Would be cool if someone made a hybrid evaluation bar that synthesizes the winning chance by combining the perfect play AND proportion of those moves that will work to those that won't.
    Now THIS bar and highlighted moves would be cool to play with since this system would be more sensible and give human-like advantage that we can use.

    Nowadays there's a lot of fear when it comes to AI, but I feel that the AI advances in Chess and Go prove that AI can be a helpful tool, especially when it comes to learning. However I do think that there's the downside where AI could potentially take away the discovery aspect especially for top players and Go could potentially become a game with no experimentation.

    • @GoMagic
      @GoMagic  Před měsícem +1

      I guess you're onto something there. But I don't believe in people abandoning experimentation altogether. The board is too big, the move are too many.

      AI has proven that the closed perspective of any game is meaningless. If we want the game to remain interesting, our perspective and thinking about the game has to change. The reason why we enjoy playing games was never the goal of completing the game, but how the journey unpacking something hard for us, changes us.
      To that end, you can always add discovery to the game, by simply adjusting your constraint or what you value. Isn't it interesting that chess has evolved with different formats? Isn't it interesting that something like poker, which has always had a known algorithm maximizing statistical outcomes, is still played and watched?
      Afterall, at the very least, you can always decide that losing most of the time is fine if at least you can win an upset sometimes, and decide to take risks in uncharted territories. This, is what makes professional play interesting for an audience!

    Hmm... Many things to say. First, is this really about sente, or about the value of taking a corner? Second, the best move against AI is not always best against humans. An usually move (a trick move) is effective against humans. If you play only AI moves in the opening you lose the surprise effect, the ability to bring your opponent into uncharted territory and keep the initiative.

    • @GoMagic
