OSTATNI BASTION GARRY KASPAROV  Mecz szachowy Garriego Kasparowa rozegrany przeciwko superkomputerowi IBM Deep Blue w 1997 roku był przełomowym momentem w historii rozwoju technologii. Jeśli chodzi o sztuczną inteligencję, był to świt nowej epoki: oto powstała maszyna zdolna pokonać człowieka, który był wówczas mistrzem tej najbardziej intelektualnej gry. Na ten moment złożyło się ponad stulecie rozwoju i w swojej przełomowej książce Kasparow po raz pierwszy ujawnia zdumiewającą stronę tej historii. Opisuje uczucia towarzyszące opracowywaniu na oczach całego świata strategii przeciwko nieprzejednanemu, niezmordowanemu przeciwnikowi oraz relacjonuje rozwój inteligencji maszyn poprzez mikrokosmos szachów, które przez całe pokolenia pionierów nauki były postrzegane jako klucz do tajemnic ludzkiego i maszynowego poznania. Kasparow wykorzystuje swoje niezrównane doświadczenie, by zajrzeć w przyszłość inteligentnych maszyn i widzi tę przyszłość jako pełną możliwości. Podczas gdy wielu krytyków postrzega sztuczną inteligencję jako zagrożenie, zwłaszcza dla ludzkich miejsc pracy, Kasparow pokazuje jak ludzkość może się wspiąć na nowe wyżyny z pomocą naszych najbardziej wyjątkowych wytworów, zamiast się ich obawiać.

In May 1997, the world watched as Garry Kasparov, the greatest chess player in the world, was defeated for the first time by the IBM supercomputer Deep Blue. It was a watershed moment in the history of technology: machine intelligence had arrived at the point where it could best human intellect.It wasn?t a coincidence that Kasparov became the symbol of man?s fight against the machines. Chess has long been the fulcrum in development of machine intelligence; the hoax automaton ?The Turk? in the 18th century and Alan Turing?s first chess program in 1952 were two early examples of the quest for machines to think like humans - a talent we measured by their ability to beat their creators at chess. As the pre-eminent chessmaster of the 80s and 90s, it was Kasparov?s blessing and his curse to play against each generation?s strongest computer champions, contributing to their development and advancing the field. Like all passionate competitors, Kasparov has taken his defeat and learned from it. He has devoted much energy to devising ways in which humans can partner with machines in order to produce results better than either can achieve alone.During the twenty years since playing Deep Blue, he?s played both with and against machines, learning a great deal about our vital relationship with our most remarkable creations. Ultimately, he?s become convinced that by embracing the competition between human and machine intelligence, we can spend less time worrying about being replaced and more thinking of new challenges to conquer.In this breakthrough book, Kasparov tells his side of the story of Deep Blue for the first time - what it was like to strategize against an implacable, untiring opponent - the mistakes he made and the reasons the odds were against him. But more than that, he tells his story of AI more generally, and how he?s evolved to embrace it, taking part in an urgent debate with philosophers worried about human values, programmers creating self-learning neural networks, and engineers of cutting edge robotics. He surveys the serious questions facing a world that is becoming increasingly reliant on AI, creating an essential guide for the business readers and educators he speaks to by the thousands every year.

Better thinking, better chess

Szachy > Książki New In Chess

Finding strong moves doesn't simply depend on how much you know about chess. In fact, greater conceptual knowledge makes choosing a move more complex as it increases the number of directions your mind can take. More important is optimizing your thought process.Grandmaster  Joel Benjamin  knows that pointing out the moves his students missed is just half the job. They need to understand that they were looking in the wrong direction.  Chess engines offer little help in this because they can#8217;t explain  why  you went astray. What#8217;s more: an engine may send the wrong message! Many chess players don#8217;t realise that the top computer move frequently isn#8217;t the best move to play during the game. This book will improve the structure and effectiveness of your decision making process. You will learn to:  -- choose between two attractive continuations -- avoid taking the wrong direction at the start of your deliberations -- know when it is necessary to spend more time -- recognize unlikely moves -- understand when you need to sacrifice material  -- and much more.By applying a grandmaster#8217;s train of thought you will more often arrive at strong moves and substantially improve your game.At thirteen years of age  Joel Benjamin  broke Bobby Fischer's record as the youngest ever US master. He won the US Championship three times and was the chess consultant for IBM's Deep Blue computer, which made history by beating World Champion Garry Kasparov in an epic encounter. He has been teaching chess for many years. His previous book  Liquidation on the Chess Board  won the 2015 Best Book Award of the Chess Journalists of America (CJA). Sean Marsh, CHESS Magazine (UK): "It is quite clear that Joel Benjamin has put a lot of time and effort into this book. I feel this could go on to become one of 2019#8217;s #8216;greatest hits." International Master John Donaldson: "A solid mixture of instruction and training that will help players rated between 2000 and 2400 in thinking more effectively during their games. Highly Recommended." John Hartmann, Chess Life Magazine:  "Clear and accessible without sacrificing complexity, and funny. The explanations are exemplary. Insightful, well-structured and it fulfils the promise of its title."

Blondie 24 Morgan Kaufmann

Informatyka

Blondie24 tells the story of a computer that taught itself to play checkers far better than its creators ever could by using a program that emulated the basic principles of Darwinian evolution--random variation and natural selection-- to discover on its own how to excel at the game. Unlike Deep Blue, the celebrated chess machine that beat Garry Kasparov, the former world champion chess player, this evolutionary program didn't have access to strategies employed by human grand masters, or to databases of moves for the endgame moves, or to other human expertise about the game of chekers. With only the most rudimentary information programmed into its "brain," Blondie24 (the program's Internet username) created its own means of evaluating the complex, changing patterns of pieces that make up a checkers game by evolving artificial neural networks---mathematical models that loosely describe how a brain works.It's fitting that Blondie24 should appear in 2001, the year when we remember Arthur C. Clarke's prediction that one day we would succeed in creating a thinking machine. In this compelling narrative, David Fogel, author and co-creator of Blondie24, describes in convincing detail how evolutionary computation may help to bring us closer to Clarke's vision of HAL. Along the way, he gives readers an inside look into the fascinating history of AI and poses provocative questions about its future.* Brings one of the most exciting areas of AI research to life by following the story of Blondie24's development in the lab through her evolution into an expert-rated checkers player, based on her impressive success in Internet competition.* Explains the foundations of evolutionary computation, simply and clearly.* Presents complex material in an engaging style for readers with no background in computer science or artificial intelligence.* Examines foundational issues surrounding the creation of a thinking machine.* Debates whether the famous Turing Test really tests for intelligence.* Challenges deeply entrenched myths about the successes and implication of some well-known AI experiments * Shows Blondie's moves with checkerboard diagrams that readers can easily follow.

Bent Larsen´s Best Games

Szachy > Książki New In Chess

Bent Larsen (1935-2010) was one of the greatest fighters chess has ever seen. In his rich career the great Dane defeated all World Champions from Botvinnik to Karpov and he became one of the most successful tournament players of his time.  Bent Larsen's uncompromising style and his unorthodox thinking made him popular with chess players all around the globe.In 1967/1968 Larsen won five international elite events in a row, a truly spectacular achievement. His successes were such that Bobby Fischer let him play first board in the legendary Soviet Union vs. the World match in Belgrade in 1970.Bent Larsen also was a highly original chess writer and an extremely productive chess journalist. Not surprisingly the first chess book that Magnus Carlsen ever studied was written by the strongest Scandinavian player before him. This collection brings together more than 120 of Bent Larsen#8217;s games, selected and annotated by himself. His comments are lucid, to the point, often humorous and always instructive. Together, these games are a tribute to his genius  and a continuous joy to read and play through. Garry Kasparov:   #8220;One of the most colorful players of the 20th century.#8221; Alfonso Romero Holmes, former Spanish Chess Champion:   #8220;One of the best books in the entire history of chess. A masterpiece.#8221; Davide Nastasio, ChessCafe: "I have long wanted to have a collection of Larsen#8217;s games in algebraic notation. Unfortunately, the previous books were all in descriptive. Larsen#8217;s writing style is very pleasant, and accessible to the widest range of players (..) He shares many nice anecdotes and compelling insights." Anatoly Karpov: "Of the many chess masters I have met, Bent is the most original." Leonard Barden, The Guardian: "A collection of 120 of the legend#8217;s games annotated in his lucid, humorous and instructive style. An evocative book, and an excellent read." Christopher Lutz, former German Chess Champion:  #8220;With a fine sense of humor Larsen explains his aggressive and unconventional approach to chess, in way that is instructive to players of all strengths.#8221; Mihail Marin, author of 'Learn from the Legends': "Together with his love for and deep knowledge of chess, it is the refined humour of this outstanding player and highly cultured person that makes his comments so unique." Max Euwe Centre, Amsterdam: "An extremely fine book. Largely because Larsen was such a wonderful chess player." British Chess Magazine: "The most important book of the last twelve months." John Henderson, The Scotsman: "I doubt whether I#8217;ll read a finer book all year. A colourful attacking player, Larsen was considered the best player in the West in an era of Soviet chess hegemony before a certain Bobby Fischer burst on the scene. This wonderful reworking of his classic biographical anthology, printed by New in Chess, proved to be a seasonal delight and a timely reminder of just how good Larsen was, with some of his greatest wins over players such as Fischer, Smyslov, Petrosian Karpov and Spassky - world champions all." Jeremy Silman, author of 'How to Reassess Your Chess': "I consider the earlier version to be one of the best chess books ever written. This new version is even better." Peter Heine Nielsen, former Danish Champion, present second to Magnus Carlsen: "His chess writing is among the best, combining analysis with humour and psychological understanding of the fight."
