Will computers ever solve chess?

there is no advntage for white because he plays first you should consider that with every move you make it has good aspects and bad aspects. Chess is big enough for people and aslo for artificial inteligence. After all its just a game hahahaha

Once again: Chess Is Big enough

  That assumes that a perfect game is not a win for Black. But nobody knows that for a fact.

Alpha Zero did not solve chess. There is a good chance that chess may never be "solved".    

Nevertheless, chess is a draw when neither side makes an error which would change the theoretical result of the game.

This is my opinion based on a ton of evidence.

To "solve" chess, to my understanding, is to make an unbeatable computer.For instance, you cannot win against a computer in tic tac toe or checkers.

Chess is so much more complicated. After a few moves, there are an unfathomable number of possible positions. Anybody with a shred of common sense in the old days would tell you that "no, computers couldn't do it."

So, yes, we will one day be rendered useless in that mind exercise. Human processing power will be once again exceeded by machines.

But not for a long time.

Also, it could turn out that Chess isn't a game where "only one side can win." Is it with two perfect machines, or one perfect machine? If just one, then it could be that either the computer can always win or initiate draw, and it may depend on who/what goes first. "Solving" Chess is frankly very vague, but in the popular sense, it's just a matter of time.

Also, the size of Chess's possibilities isn't "astronomical." It's too big for that spaghet. I personally contend that Chess is infinite, so there is no comparison to our lives, except for how funny Sonic Let's Plays are.

Then again, we're gonna have even longer than we think. If Siri is still stupid after all this time... maybe we have an extra decade.

It is quite obvious that alpha didn’t solve chess, no need to say anything, you can see for yourself. The computation load is overwhelming even for this program.

  Not really. To solve chess is to find out what is the result of a perfect game, with best moves played by both sides. Whatever that result may be: White wins, draw or Black wins.

The best checker players knew checkers was a draw long before the game was solved.

The best chess players know chess is a draw and this is long before the game is ever solved.   

That parallel is only a weak inference.

  You’re funny. To know the best moves for White you must also check all the moves for White.

  Yes, so your proposal did not bring any improvements.

I didn’t expect any. We’re just talking,

 Doesn’t look like it, despite the fact that it might be a phenomenon. We need a bigger phenomenon.

Like humans computers can always improve, but never reach a limit.

  I doubt that very much.

  That doesn’t guarantee that in the future, a super-super engine will make Alpha look ridiculous.

For now. Since you are unable to foresee the future, you have no idea whether this alpha is a joke or not. You are just guessing and trying to present that guess as a fact. It’s still a guess.

Not only that: he can’t even say that alpha will solve chess. No one knows the future.

  No need to ask the machine. It is way obvious that it did not compute even 1% of the whole thing. Just look at its computational power. Regardless of the intuition, you still need the numbers to verify it. It doesn’t have them.
