Tiniest of engines produce a 3000 ELO+ show at TCEC 4k

The Top Chess Engine Championship (TCEC) is the place to see the giants of modern chess – Stockfish, Leela, Berserk, KomodoDragon, Ethereal, Rubichess, etc. It is the battleground for the strongest to prove their everlasting advance to perfection.

From time to time TCEC treats us with side events. Currently ongoing is one of the most amazing such bonuses – the TCEC 4k competition. The key: all participating engines are limited to to a maximum of 4KiB (4096 bytes)

In modern age it is a challenge to find applications of this size. At TCEC, however, the competitors not only meet the requirement, but play above GM level. The top two engines – Ice4 and 4ku – even participate successfully in the regular season, boasting ELO of over 3000.
