Yes Hiarcs has position learning and so should learn from serious mistakes. The Hiarcs opening book will also learn.

Harvey,

Does HIARCS learn from both sides during a game? It may have just been coincidence but when I was testing "best line" from a certain position, HIARCS initially missed best line as White and drew then lost as Black when opponent found best line but subsequently played the winning line as White in the third game that suggested it learnt the winning White move playing as Black in the second game! Very efficient learning if it is the case.
