Computer Solves Checkers
Sort:
Bloody hell! I don't think a mere computer will ever beat the game of Chess. If they even get close some super-genius will spawn from some lake in Japan and completely demolish the computer programme. LOL.
I picked this up off of BBCnews.com/americas. It basically says that a computer has now solved checkers and it says that it can either beat or draw any opponent. The end of the article references Chess as the next game to be "broken" by computers but that there currently isn't enough computer power to do it. There are a billion billion billion billion billion possible positions in chess and that it would take aeons for current computers to solve it.
