AlphaZero grinds the Tarrasch Defence like Vladimir Kramnik. AlphaZero Opening Novelties #5

GM Matthew Sadler and WIM Natasha Regan explain how AlphaZero - DeepMind's general purpose artificial intelligence algorithm - thinks, trains and plays chess.
In this video, we examine an AlphaZero Tarrasch Defence, or rather the White side of it as AlphaZero implements a strategy that brought back memories for Matthew of a very difficult game he had drawn as Black against chess legend and former World Champion Vladimir Kramnik in 1998.
Matthew and Natasha's new book "Game Changer" came out on 20th January 2019 and won the prestigious ECF Book of the Year and the FIDE Book of the Year prizes for 2019! The Game Changer chess book is available in print and digital versions from these links:
