Is Torch really better than Stockfish?

In its match against Stockfish, Torch played aggressively while Stockfish defended and prepared for counterattacks, resulting in a tense and equal fight. However, Torch won with its outstanding endgame tactics and brilliant thinking that forced Stockfish to admit defeat through checkmate. 

Stockfish is a traditional chess engine that uses a combination of algorithms, heuristics, and brute-force search to evaluate chess positions and make decisions. It employs techniques such as alpha-beta pruning, transposition tables, and advanced evaluation functions to analyze the game tree and determine the best move. On the other hand, Torch is a newer chess engine that utilizes neural networks and machine learning techniques. It uses deep learning models, trained on large datasets of chess games, to evaluate positions and make decisions. Both engines have strenths and weaknesses but overall, Torch has beaten Stockfish.
