Rybka Cheats
I love to play chess against computers ... OK, I'm basically addicted ... Fruit and Crafty take me to the cleaners every time ... Now I know why Rybka is so good.

This current issue is about plagiarizing the programming it seems.
Not so fast ...Quote: mustangsallyLeibniz and Newton were the first I believe. hehe
Newton Vs. Leibniz
Obviously the first to plagiarize was John who copied ancient myths on savior archetypes in his story of Jesus.

Gah, 90% of computer code is borrowing on the patterns of other code anyways, that's how software improves over time.

After doing some reading about the subject, seems IF Rybka was NOT 'winning' no one would bother about the code issues.
Like the US getting involved in wars in countries where oil is produced and not in countries where bananas are aplenty...

The program doesn't cheat, it's the coder who was (allegedly) at fault.
Well, yes, you are right, in the sense that no program for anything can ever cheat -- given that all such programs are only following the code of the designer, ergo it is always the designer who is unethical in some fashion, not his program.Quote: P90The program doesn't cheat, it's the coder who was (allegedly) at fault.
I personally thought the anthropomorphic wording was clever of me. Guess you didn't.
