Komodo 13 thinks like no other chess program. Inspired by AlphaZero, Komodo developers GM Larry Kaufman and Mark Lefler have reinvented their engine from scratch over the last two years. The result speaks for itself: The new Komodo 13 MCTS ("Monte Carlo Tree Search") searches for candidate moves in an incredibly innovative way and finds solutions most engines never see!
Our top endgame expert GM Karsten Mueller provided us with analyses. Watch and see how Stockfish managed to break Komodo's fortress, with hardly any material left on the board.
