Chess Is the Battle Ground for the Artificial Intelligence Confidence Trick

 Artificial Intelligence experts will have you believe that when a Chess Computer neural network makes a move it has a higher value in the context of consciousness than if a brute force engine makes a move. Well, they are both the same, mindless unconscious and totally determinant.




What is so sad is that this confidence trick peddled by computer scientists and software developers is incentivized by the prospect of huge sponsorship deals with tech firms desperate to be the first to harness this new area of technology.

I went to Imperial College and studied Electrical and Electronic Engineering under the tutelage of Professor Igor Aleksander the co-inventor of the world's first standalone artificial intelligence neural network built for pattern recognition. Professor Igor Aleksander had a particular specialism in the area of artificial consciousness, machine consciousness, synthetic consciousness, perceived consciousness, and "Qualia".

Garry Kasparov and Elon Musk are two proponents of a nuanced approach to AI. Garry argues that AI should augment human intelligence and not replace it. Elon Musk warns against the dangers of unconstrained AI applications which would cause more harm than good.

In summary, AI is a tool that can help humans transform their world for the better but only if they really understand what is going on when the machines are unconsciously conscious.

Chess Futures: An Innovative Approach to Chess Ratings

Image
Abstract: The world of chess has long relied on rating systems to quantify player skill and facilitate fair competition. However, the traditional Elo rating system, although widely used and respected, has its limitations. This paper proposes an innovative approach to chess ratings called Chess Futures, which utilizes three measures to triangulate a more accurate and responsive chess rating. Each measure carries equal weight and aims to capture different aspects of player performance. The first measure incorporates a normal distribution, similar to FIDE Elo but independent of it. The second measure employs stochastic modeling to account for the inherent uncertainty in chess outcomes. Finally, the third measure introduces a tournament performance rating (TPR) that reflects a player's growth over time. Chess Futures represents a significant departure from traditional rating systems, offering a reimagined approach to chess rating that addresses the shortcomings of existing methodologie

How I invented Puzzle Rush 10 years before Chess.com released it.

  I t was in 2008 when I had finished my chess server WebChess X using open source code WebChess. I opened my chess server and found it was thriving but had a problem with some users cheating. I spent a few months in mid-2008 racking my brain as to how to solve the problem. I eventually came up with an idea. Why not create a test which randomly quizzes users with chess puzzles but make it time constrained and rated so I could validate that the ELO of the user was still consistent with the results they were getting. So I wrote the code in PHP utilising my database of over 10 million chess positions. I also used some open source code called LT PGN VIEWER by Lutz Tautenhahn which had a guess-the-move app, problem board script. The app recognises FEN strings from pgn files of game fragments and matches the move played with the move string loaded. The app I built was simple it randomly selected a position and asked the user to play the winning move. It had to be just that move because their

Breaking Down Barriers: The Male Toxicity and Gender Gap in Chess and Its Implications

Image
Introduction Chess, often touted as the "game of kings," has long been a battlefield for intellect and strategy. However, beneath the surface of this ancient game lies a more contemporary conflict—one of gender inequality. Despite the strides made in recent years, sexism still lurks within the chess world, acting as a barrier for women aspiring to reach their full potential. In this blog post, we'll explore how sexism impacts women in the game, delve into the consequences of segregated tournaments, and highlight the stories of three remarkable women who have defied the odds. Sexism and Its Lingering Effects: From historical prejudices to modern-day biases, sexism has left its mark on the chess world. Stereotypes about women's abilities in strategic thinking and competitive environments have persisted, leading to fewer opportunities and a lack of representation at the highest levels of play. This systemic bias has discouraged many young girls from entering the world of
