Yes, it can be quite stupid sometimes. For example when it plays very accurately and then suddenly sacrifice its queen for no bloody reason.
Chess vs Computer on chess.com
Sort:
Computers are suckers for tactics so naturally the double edged Bongcloud Defence is perfect for them, especially the Marathon variation as played here.

My god... I thought you were joking but then I googled it and found various posts on this site. I can't tell if this is a "legit" opening or just a ton of trolls. There are people talking about how it "looks stupid, but actually has merit". I just watched a game with the king marathoning right to the other side of the board and "forking" two pieces on the second rank.
Thank you for exposing me to a completely insane opening.
Hey, I'm a new member, so I apologize if this has been asked before. I couldn't find it with a quick search. Does anyone use the chess vs computer application on this site? If so, have you ever noticed it playing very strangely? I only played two games, and both were strange. The second one was really weird.
I played e4 and f4 as white, and the computer played d3 then moved his king into the second rank. As I developed, he moved his king all the way into the center of the board without moving any other pieces. Finally I started to attack and he moved his king all the way back and started developing. Needless to say, I won, but I have never seen a chess engine play like this.
