I INVENTED A NEW COMPUTER PROGRAM THAT CAN PLAY CHESS AT GM LEVEL

Sort:

🔧 What You Need
Chess Engine (., Stockfish)

Already plays at ~3500 ELO.
Open-source and easy to integrate.
GUI or Interface

Use a Python script with a CLI or GUI (., using tkinter or a web framework).
UCI Protocol (Universal Chess Interface)

Stockfish communicates via UCI.
Python libraries like python-chess support this.
Tuning

To play at 2800 ELO, you’d need to deliberately weaken Stockfish (., by limiting depth, nodes, or time).
 
🧠 Example: Python Program Using Stockfish at 2800 ELO
Here's a simple program using the python-chess library and Stockfish:

Step 1: Install Dependencies
bash
CopyEdit
pip install python-chess

Download the latest Stockfish binary:

Step 2: Python Script
python
CopyEdit
import chess
import

# Set path to your Stockfish executable
STOCKFISH_PATH = "/path/to/stockfish"

# Set up the board and engine
board = chess.Board()
engine = .SimpleEngine.popen_uci(STOCKFISH_PATH)

# Adjust engine strength (limit depth, time, or nodes)
# This makes Stockfish simulate ~2800 ELO
limit = .Limit(time=)  # Time per move

def play_move():
    result = (board, limit)
    ()

def main():
    print("Starting game vs Stockfish (2800 ELO Simulation)")
    while not ():
        print(board)
        user_move = input("Your move: ")
        try:
            _san(user_move)
        except:
            print("Invalid move. Try again.")
            continue

        if ():
            break

        play_move()

    print("Game over!")
    print("Result:", ())
    ()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

 
🧪 How to Calibrate to ~2800 ELO
To emulate a specific ELO:

Use Stockfish's UCI_LimitStrength and UCI_Elo options:

python
CopyEdit
({"UCI_LimitStrength": True, "UCI_Elo": 2800})

This tells Stockfish to intentionally play like a 2800-rated player.
Add it before the game loop:

python
CopyEdit
({
    "UCI_LimitStrength": True,
    "UCI_Elo": 2800
})

 
🔍 Beyond This
If you want to build your own engine from scratch to reach 2800:

Learn about:

Minimax and Alpha-Beta pruning
Opening books
Endgame tablebases
Neural networks (., LCZero-style)
Be ready for massive computation, ideally with GPUs and cloud infrastructure.

Chess.com uses AI sometimes in it’s UI to help speed things up, but for the most part, it’s done by staff.

Thank you, yes. It might be on the horizon, unfortunately, humans being sent to the sidelines, but we aren't there yet. Let's not be weird.

And, no offense, but why does an amateur waste time creating a chess engine? Do we have a shortage? Is it better in some way?

absurd

Watching AI do all the work and then claiming credit? bit like microwaving a frozen pizza and calling yourself a chef.

tell that to to steve jobbs; watching an AI write all the programs for apple etc

joe-rod

Isn't better and easier to use Lucas Chess?

delcai007

tell that to to steve jobbs

Right, because Apple is a new company.

The point here is just that the OP is pretendimg to be brighter than he actually is, posting AI generated code, then saying, "Look, I created a new chess engine!"

He didnt even write an actual chess engine. Hes just telling stockfish to play weaker

Chessflyfisher

Should we tell the police about him? Surely he must be breaking laws. And don't call me Shurley!

delcai007

Feel free to tolerate BS. I'll feel free to call it out.
