PAllen said:The group was concerned with these rats holes eating up too much processing time, so they added a rule that games over some threshold length were scored as draws (the paper does not specify what value they chose for this cutoff).
Limiting the number of moves before declaring a draw would let you make the number of possible games more finite. But I think that it is beside the point. These neural nets don't memorize specific games, they remember gain factors (weights) in their neural nets. I think neural nets are fascinating because they are almost the antithesis of logic.
