How old are you? Deep blue defeated a world champion in 1985 (only 2 years into the internet)

How old are you? That didn't happen until 1997, and it sure as hell wasn't running on my Pentium processor.

Youre thinking of the second world champ it defeated.

Edit: shit developed in 1985. You're right.

Yeah, I thought your year was incorrect, but I didn't feel like fact checking. You should consider updating the original post with the accurate year. I was in elementary school in 85 and I vividly remember talking about how computers were amazing at computational tasks, but still unable to surpass humans in logic and prediction.

Yeah I had to double check, too. It started feeling like that "1990 was 30 years ago" meme.

Older than that.

Old enough to have lost to Chess on the 2600...

Fair, I'm almost 30 and I already feel old.

I've got almost 20 years on you, and it hurts me to acknowledge that.
