Magnus has discovered something fundamental about Chess that nobody ever talks about: "bad" moves are not bad, they're just uncommon, and sometimes only reflect the psychological element of the game, not the actual gameplay mechanics. Magnus employs AI to train himself to exploit this disparity better than the competition, who are stuck in the classic ways of thinking.
really strong showing by Magnus, even with the very minor inaccuracies. for any inaccuracy he makes, he plays something that’s just absolutely stellar. glad to see him bounce back.
I don't know why I watch these videos as I'm hopeless at chess and only know the rules but none of the strategy. But even I can appreciate Magnus' mastery.
I love the old tales of chess-playing machines. Turk, Ajeeb, Mephisto. I was a child player and played on the high school chess team but then I walked away. Fifty years later, you're making my interest come back.
