Free AI chess engines Leela Chess Zero (Lc0) - an AI engine Download the latest release here ("blas" for CPU-only; "cuda" for NVIDIA GPUs; or "OpenCL" for other GPUs). Here is an installation guide. This is how to set it up in a GUI. You need to download a neural network (NNs 42850, 32930, and 11248 are very strong, but any of the latest NNs will work fine. [Here is a list of the strongest AI neural networks for LeelaChessZero.]) If you'd like to contribute your GPUs/CPUs to Leela improvement, you can download the latest client. Here is a tool to get your Leela ratio, and here is the process for getting it going on a Windows PC. Once you've gotten Lc0 set up, you can also try out Anti-Fish, the neural network used to make Stockfish stronger, or Leelenstein. Use the Lc0 engine executable, then use the AntiFish or Leelenstein nn file as the weights file. You can also try LeelaFish, which uses the Lc0 AI with the help of an AB engine, like Stockfish, to find tactical shots. Allie is new and promising.
