Unser Fritz [1]

Fat Fritz,
a commercial chess entity by ChessBase featuring a set of custom made neural network weights that work in the open source project Leela Chess Zero within its Lc0 executable. Initially introduced as a cloud project in August 2019, inspired by DeepMind's ground breaking AlphaZero approach combining Deep learning with Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) [2], and Albert Silver's Deus X experience, relaxing Leela Chess' "Zero" paradigm of pure reinforcement learning due to supervised learning, Fat Fritz was released in November 2019 as part the Fritz 17 package, best supported by a GPU card such as Nvidia GeForce 20 series. The project and its underlying techniques was emphasized by a talk of AlphaZero co-author Thore Graepel at ChessBase, attended by German computer chess icon Thomas Nitsche along with his sons and Math42 authors Raphael Nitsche and Maxim Nitsche [3], and was further supported by Daniel Uranga [4] [5].
