Same, the authors of the Grandmaster Reportoire books are collectively responsible for all of my losses

"12...0-0 was not in my file!" says Nakamura, "and it was too difficult to find [13.Ne4!] over the board." Hikaru is unimpressed by the work done by his seconds, who he doesn't name but describes as "strong GMs"

I am also not looking forward to the hans niemann Netflix show

[Brer Oswald @BrerOswald]

It’s depressing knowing that this film is going to permanently sully the name of the greatest game of all time.

no step-grandmaster, we shouldn't

[chess shitposter @manneredmonkey]

why did you vibecode such a fucked up lookin board dude

[Deedy @deedydas]

Karpathy's Autoresearch pushed my vibecoded Rust chess engine AI from "expert" to a top 50 grandmaster, a #311 chess engine.

It ran over 70 experiments on its own and tried to hill climb to the top ELO score it could, landing at 2718!

my favorite part of the deepmind documentary is when demis decides that chess is a waste of life force and intellect

makes me wonder how many others have been nerdsniped into meaningless pursuits without realizing

[chess shitposter @manneredmonkey]

@NeurostaticMind @gizmobly hello you are more than a markov chain you are welcome

[chess shitposter @manneredmonkey]

me: take the free queen

andrew: you fuckin moron

[Andrew Lekashman @andrewlekashman]

I think one of the more fascinating points about chess is that the new chess models aren’t just “better”.

They are so much better that if two chess AI were playing against each other and a human (any human), were to contribute a single move, at any point in the game, that would be enough to typically guarantee a loss.

@anishgiri only if you follow your course

@isofarro @Rahal_Michael the only thing close is scid and that has a lot of rough edges

@ChessBase i am begging you to release a linux build. please free me from windows 11

[chess shitposter @manneredmonkey]

the same is true with chess

Someone who picked up chess last year: against e4 I aim for the Sicilian taimanov bastrikov ponomariov gambit, but sometimes it isn't possible and I have to transpose to f4 lines

Person who played as a child: I think I play the caro-kann

in 2025 the only reasonable way to follow any chess tournament in your phone is lichess mobile web

> chess company or startup announce new chess platform/app, looking for devs
> promise performant application on mobile
> look at tech stack
> mobile stack is react native or flutter

every fucking time

[chess shitposter @manneredmonkey]

every chess app is slow. Endgame, chesscom, chessever, even the new lichess app is react native or flutter slop. The last good chess mobile app was FollowChess. RIP King.
