Application of AI to game playing

Game playing: Ever since the beginning of AI, there has been an issue about facing a computer against a human being. A match was set where a computer and a human being were to face off in a game of chess, the human being the world's best chess player at that time. To every one’s surprise the computer beat the human being, which then brought about one of the most popular questions in the history of AI which was “can computers think ?” this question will still be revisited later in this project. People can buy machines that can play master level chess for just a few hundred dollars the main question is whether there are any forms AI in them, yes of course form the definition of AI it is clear that there is but they play well against people mainly through high speed computations they look at hundreds of thousand possible positions to play. To beat a world champion the computer should be able to look at over 200 million positions per second.
