Subject: Use pure NNUE for king of the hill
X-Git-Url: http://winboard.nl/cgi-bin?a=commitdiff_plain;h=edc15aafa2de013002decc0440bd30bf5a0a4a60;p=fairystockfish.git

Use pure NNUE for king of the hill

Since the best NNUE network is much stronger than classical evaluation,
it seems intuitive to switch from hybrid to pure NNUE evaluation.
