Have you contemplated the deep irony that your hobby stole mastery of chess from mankind, forever?

Now you're demoralized because of... artificial intelligence?

Edit: I'll leave the original bon mot in place. Among other things, I'm curious about your answer to the question. But you deserve a more topical reply as well.

My response in this thread was prompted by @Sp00ph's post[0], which is straightforwardly an accusation of infringement.

You seem more interested in credit, which is a third thing aside from infringement or plagiarism. I would not say that infringement and plagiarism are actually 'orthogonal', perfect plagiarism is, after all, infringement.

Credit is the odd one out of the three. I think it's entirely reasonable to want it, and even to open an issue demanding it (kind of).

But what I want to note about your post: it's hostile. It's aggressive. It's mean. It offers the person you're replying to no avenue to remedy your anger.

I think that's shitty behavior and you shouldn't do that.

It's a dog-eat-dog world, eh? :)

Anyway, I don't see how this relates to the original discussion. Nor do I think the irony is particularly deep: As far as I'm aware, Deep Blue didn't plagiarize Kasparov, and indeed alpha-beta search is quite different than how humans calculate. But yes, I'd have been very demoralized if I were Kasparov, although he seems to be doing well now.
