Quote

Pauline: Peter, did you ever stop and ask yourself how many squares are on a chess board? Bishton: 64. It's an 8 by 8 grid. Pauline: Well... but don't you see how limited that is? Bishton: No, it's actually very complex once you start to think about it as a programming problem. Just the number of possible games explodes exponentially with each move, it's close to 10 to the 120th power. And to try and compute all those games might take even longer than humanity would be around to do so.

But Peter did you ever ask yourself

64
00:00:10.276 --> 00:00:12.998
It's an eight by eight grid
00:00:12.145 --> 00:00:15.038
Well but don't you see how limited that is
00:00:15.448 --> 00:00:16.648

00:00:23.423 --> 00:00:27.001
Just the number of possible games explode exponentially with each move
00:00:27.193 --> 00:00:31.597
It's close to 10 to 120th power
00:00:31.664 --> 00:00:35.601
and to try and compute all those games
