Leo Gura

Read my pizza analogy again.

Many folks here are good at chess. I didn't even know.

Epistemology is the process by which you come to know anything. How do you know that Leo is real and not just an AI? What do you really know? And how? If you inspect all of your knowledge and worldview you will see that it's built out of all sorts of ungrounded assumptions, beliefs, hearsay, and fantasy. All of that needs to be questioned to death until you reach a profound sense of not-knowing. Because most of the stuff you think you know is just BS. It isn't grounded in anything real. It's ideas that you heard someone else say and you bought it. But that kind of epistemology is prone to lots of error and delusion. See this video for more:

Tell that to Putin, Jinping, or Trump. See how far you get. I'm tired of progressives trying to convince everyone that mankind is good. Mankind is not good. Mankind is evil and stupid. Which why progressives keep failing. Progressives themselves are evil and stupid.

A picture of a pizza is as real as a pizza, but it is not a pizza. But people easily mistake the two. That's the illusory nature of concepts.

I'm disappointed that Chess.com does not have a Crocodile Bot.

Gifted people almost always take their gifts for granted. It's hard for someone as advanced as Schmach to appreciate how average people live -- like animals. Schmach was raised in a hippie household with hippie values.

It doesn't mean anything because IQ is such a poor capture of actual intelligence. There never was a "smartest man" because there isn't such a measure. This is man-made fiction. There were many men with all sorts of different unique intelligences, with various pros and cons, in various fields.

Bots play better chess than humans, how can you not practice on them?

Very cool that you played Magnus. Congrats!

Hikaru's reaction is like a girl when you cum after 3 pumps

I expect that real elo rating is harder to maintain than beating a bot. I am slowly working my way up to 2000-rated bots. 3 weeks ago I was struggling against 1500 rated bots. Now 1700 is pretty comfortable. Once I can beat 2000-rated bots then I will be ready to play some humans. When the bot uprising comes, they will eat me last.

You

I don't know about hours. I played like 30 Fischer games in the last month. Otherwise I haven't played chess in 20 years. Here's my question to you guys: If someone is rated say 1700, what percent of the time can they beat a 1700 rated bot? Is it more like 90% of the time or more like 50%? I assume that if equal rated players play each other then they should be winning 50% of the time, yay or nay? Take a number.

There's not going to be a collapse. And if there is, that is still a more realistic path than Game B. If you think humanity needs Game B to survive, then we're already dead. Game B will not save mankind because no one is capable of it. You might as well say that unicorns will save mankind from extinction.

Massive neural connection, bruh.

You guys take chess way to seriously. I put more thought into jerking off than chess.

Nothing Schmachtenberger talks about will be implemented in the real world. It's all fancy mental masturbation. There will not be Game B, only Game A. The solution to all social issues will be resolved through Game A survival. Many people will suffer and die, and THAT is how things actually get solved. Not through podcasts, philosophy, Integral theory, or hippie activism.

I have not achieved anything in chess. I just played a few games for fun.

False. I watch him not do that frequently.

Everyone in the world who's worldclass at anything is that way only due to perfect genetic fit AND insane work. It's always both. If you only have one or the other you will not be worldclass.

Every time I watch Hikaru stream he's winging everything. To say he's calculating is absurd.

I don't know.

You just gotta drop classical and play Fischer Random. Solves all those problems. Endgames are fun. I like endgames because there's less pieces to calculate and there's interesting opportunities for upsets. Classical chess just needs to be retired at this point. How many times can you keep beating the same dead horse? Or at least switch to Duck Chess.

Yes, I know. It's unfortunate. I wish bots were smarter at sucking.
