    Oh no! Stratego had been on my mind as something we just hadn't tried hard enough to make a winning bot for, including the DeepMind effort from 2022. I was planning to make the first one.

    I thought this was slightly less crank-coded than trying to prove the Riemann Hypothesis, but maybe these days you just ask Claude to do that and it tells you there's a counterexample at 1 + πi that no one ever noticed before.

          I only saw this vid <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=hdxAmJsspcA" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=hdxAmJsspcA

          clickbait title and the bot isn&#x27;t at &quot;top players struggle to beat it&quot; level - but it&#x27;s no longer a casual walk in the park like the default ai is, so the progress is massive
