Is this some kind of touring test for chess players? Figure out if the person your are playing chess with is a human or robot? LLM's aren't yet successful doing that by chatting with them, and as a newbie I suppose that test could be easier, but what do I know...

I've contributed thousands of games to a bot to play like shit. That is genuinely cool.

Oh boy! Can't wait to play against that AI and win because it keeps trying to get their pawns to promote instead of using any other pieces!

But can it play anarchy chess?

[–] hellothere@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 day ago

I manage to be pretty crap at chess without having to play 91 million games.

How does this compare to Maia, which is a similar project for an engine that's supposed to play more human like?

Oh no Tech Journalists just lost 1 of their 3 AI article topics.

So they made an intentionally bad chess agent? That also already exists.

The only way left to detect cheating is looking at how human the moves are.

Yes, intentionally bad, but plays like a beginner human. You just don't have enough beginners for people to play because beginners become better.

A true 400 elo human will be hard to find for you to play your first few games

human players who definitely never consult chess bots right
