AlphaZero Gave Stockfish Three Free Pawns and Its Greedy Knight Never Came Back Home
What this video shows
This is a real game from DeepMind's published AlphaZero vs Stockfish 8 games (the set DeepMind released with its Science paper in December 2018), not a game made up for the video.
AlphaZero has Black in the Two Knights Defence and gives up pawns for quick development. The white knight that grabs a pawn on a7 never gets back.
