+ ### Human versus Bot Players
193
+
194
+ The source data comes from games played on Lichess.org, an online platform where users from around the world play chess.
195
+ This database does not distinguish between human-and bot-played games.
196
+ However, it's reasonable to assume games played before April 2018 were overwhelmingly played by human players since Lichess.org
197
+ released its [bot api](https://github.com/lichess-org/api) on April 1st, 2018.
