Jul 7, 2023 at 20:43 comment added user904963 Keep in mind that Elo isn't an absolute number. It makes little sense listing the Elo of an engine that got its rating playing other engines alongside a human's Elo that they got playing primarily top humans. To see this, imagine if there were some ultra genius 6 year old. Maybe, he plays at the level of a decent IM, but his rating, against other young children, might be 3500 Elo. Despite this tremendous number, he would lose more often than win against adult grandmasters. Basically, Elo comparisons can only be done if the two players got their ratings against the same population.
