KataGo 1.9.1 released - major improvements!
Just a heads up for KataGo users who haven't already seen through other channels: KataGo just this week had a new release, 1.9.0, followed by a bugfix release 1.9.1. Changes include stronger and better search even with the same nets, some performance improvements, and some new options that can be used to adjust KataGo to play more variety of moves, and various other features.
The 1.9.1 latest release is here: https://github.com/lightvector/KataGo/releases but it just fixes a few bugs, see the preceding release for notes about the recent changes: https://github.com/lightvector/KataGo/releases/tag/v1.9.0
And of course, KataGo is continuing to gradually train and improve at https://katagotraining.org/. If you'd like to help make KataGo better, check it out! Many thanks to all the people who have helped out so far, whether donating compute power to training, helping find and test issues, or simply using Kata and having fun.
