Komodo is the Grand Champion of the 2015 Top Chess Engine Championship! It won the gold medal in the strongest match in chess engine history after defeating Stockfish. I think it can be fair to say that Komodo dominated the match, had this been a human match between Magnus Carlsen and Vishy Anand the chess world in general would have been amazed about such a one sided result. But It was a match between the two best chess engines in the world today which many thought could be a close match that may go either way, in point of fact it was really a walkover for Komodo, after winning the first game it never looked as if Stockfish could put up much of a fight or had any way to defeat the Dragon, end result 8-1 (not counting draws)
Of course there will be some in this forum who even after this result will still think/claim that Stockfish is the better engine. It is a great engine, but the results in this match are concrete proof of which is the better. (Unless you want to play blitz chess!?)
Before someone (I'm sure we all know who?) claims this match was rigged in some way or that Chessbase had some mystical hand in the results somehow I should point out that the event
was watched by many thousands and organized by Chessdom.com and ChessArena.com.
P.S. No I have no involvement with either Komodo or Chessbase
