Part 5/9:
In a much more demanding exercise, Grock 3 was challenged to write a chess engine in C that adhered to the Universal Chess Interface (UCI) protocol. With comprehensive specifications outlining how to implement the engine, Grock 3 took just over two minutes to respond with a full implementation. Upon initial compilation attempts, minor errors were identified. However, Grock 3 was able to refine the code successfully on the second attempt, illustrating its ability to iterate and learn from the feedback provided.
However, when the generated chess engine was put to the test against a human opponent, it manifested issues—attempting to move pieces incorrectly, suggesting limitations in its understanding of the game’s mechanics despite successfully compiling the code.
