Deep Thought I - circuit board [1]
Deep Thought,
was a computer chess machine built at Carnegie Mellon University in the 1980's, the predecessor to Deep Blue. The project was initially started 1985 as ChipTest by the computer science doctoral students Feng-hsiung Hsu and Thomas Anantharaman. Murray Campbell, former co-developer of HiTech, joined the ChipTest team a few month later - followed by Andreas Nowatzyk, Mike Browne and Peter Jansen. The program was named Deep Thought after the fictional computer of the same name [2] .

Achievements
- In 1988 Deep Thought and Grandmaster Tony Miles shared first place in the Software Toolworks Open in Los Angeles. Deep Thought had a 2745 performance rating, and moved its U.S. Chess Federation (USCF) rating up to 2551, and qualified for the $10,000 Fredkin Intermediate Prize as the first computer to achieve a USCF performance rating of 2500 over a set of 25 contiguous games in human tournaments [4]
- In 1988 Deep Thought won the ACM championship in Orlando
- In 1989 Deep Thought won the 6th World Computer Chess Championship in Edmonton, with a perfect 5-0 score
- In 1989 Garry Kasparov defeated Deep Thought in a match by winning 2 games
- In 1989 Deep Thought won the ACM championship in Reno (tied with HiTech [5])
- In 1989 Deep Thought beat International Master David Levy in a match with 4 wins
- In 1989 IBM started working on Deep Blue
- In 1990 Deep Thought won the ACM championship in New York City
- In 1991 Deep Thought II won the ACM championship in Albuquerque
