How the AI learns
- Step 1
You play a full match
Guests play too. Sign in to keep an Elo per game and a place on the leaderboard.
- Step 2
The match is replayed and checked
The server replays every move through the same deterministic game core. Abandoned, invalid, too short or inhumanly fast matches never reach training.
- Step 3
A challenger has to earn promotion
In games that learn from people, checked human matches help train a challenger. It ships only after it beats the current champion in a gated head-to-head, and each game’s stats page shows which games learn from humans today.
Play chips only. Nothing to buy, nothing to win but a place on the board. Duelwise uses finished Four in a Row matches for training unless you opt out in Settings. In Chess, Heads-Up Hold'em, Word Duel, Tinderbox and Coldstore they are kept for your report and rating only.
