Jerry Brody, a long-time employee of IBM Research, was recruited to the team in 1990.
Anantharaman subsequently left IBM for Wall Street and Arthur Joseph Hoane joined the team to perform programming tasks. Hsu and Campbell joined IBM in fall 1989, with Anantharaman following later. After graduating the university, Hsu, Thomas Anantharaman, and Murray Campbell were asked by IBM Research to continue their project to build a chess machine that could defeat a world champion. The project started under the name ChipTest at Carnegie Mellon University by Feng-hsiung Hsu and was followed by ChipTest’s successor, Deep Thought.
However, Kasparov accused IBM of cheating. Deep Blue won game six, thereby winning the six-game rematch 3½–2½ and becoming the first computer system to defeat a reigning world champion in a match under standard chess tournament time controls. Deep Blue was heavily upgraded before playing against Kasparov again in May 1997. However, Kasparov won three and drew two of the following five games, defeating Deep Blue by a score of 4–2. In 1989, it was renamed Deep Blue.ĭeep Blue won its first game against world champion Garry Kasparov in game one of a six-game match on 10 February 1996. IBM hired the development team when the project was briefly given the name Deep Thought. It was the first computer to win both a chess game and a chess match against a reigning world champion under regular time controls.ĭevelopment for Deep Blue began in 1985 with the ChipTest project at Carnegie Mellon University Grandmaster Joel Benjamin was part of the development team.
Partial or complete amnesia related to the time spent driving under highway hypnosis can develop for the driver involved.ĭeep Blue was a chess-playing computer developed by IBM. In the example of highway hypnosis, one stream of consciousness is driving the car while the other is dealing with other matters. Building on the theories of Ernest Hilgard (1986, 1992) that hypnosis is an altered state of awareness, some theorists hold that the consciousness can develop hypnotic dissociation. The term "highway hypnosis" was coined by G. The idea that the unaccountable automobile accidents could be explained by this phenomenon became popular in the 1950s. A 1929 study, Sleeping with the Eyes Open by Walter Miles, also dealt with the subject, suggesting that it was possible for motorists to fall asleep with their eyes open and continuing to steer. The concept was first described in a 1921 article that mentioned the phenomenon of "road hypnotism": driving in a trance-like state while gazing at a fixed point. Highway hypnosis is a manifestation of the common process of automaticity. In this state, the driver's conscious mind is apparently fully focused elsewhere, while seemingly still processing the information needed to drive safely. Highway hypnosis, also known as white line fever, is an altered mental state in which a person can drive a car, truck, or other automobile great distances, responding to external events in the expected, safe, and correct manner with no recollection of having consciously done so.
