Having read Jonathan Schaeffer’s great book One Jump Ahead, I couldn’t help feeling that this article was a (well-written) book report which just barely mentions its primary source. Nice summary, but read the original. I haven’t read the second edition which apparently includes the follow-up story of solving the game, but I found the first edition very compelling. I wonder if the reporter was following the recent Deepmind/U of Alberta news and then came across the checkers story. Disclaimer: I was in Jonathan’s compiler course 30 years ago, prior to Chinook. |
