Not a chess player, how big of a deal is this? Like do they lose their grandmaster title and have to live in shame or something?

Heading into the topic, I thought this was going to be how two little girls together beat a grandmaster, which would have still been impressive. But this is even better lol

i know it was a joke but you can't lose your grandmaster title ever unless you cheat or do something really bad like murder someone

How do they consider this "good news"? It actually kinda sucks that grown adults who put years into making this type of competition their profession got clowned by little kids off of raw genetic genius. Impressive, but very unmotivating. >_>

It's not raw genetic genius. Chess ability had massively increased since the 90s when computers started outplaying humans. Since then people train on computers since they are better than humans and since Chess is a solved game you can analyze every game to see what moves you made weren't optimal. That means all the training old players did is massively inferior to modern training people are doing now.

Chess isn't actually solved, not even for computers. With current technology, you would need to have a computer spend more than the age of the universe per move to solve the optimal game.

Computers have gotten really good at estimating the optimal move, but that's not the same thing as solving it the way tic tac toe is solved.

The dude has insane ego problems he will probably flip a table if a little girl captures a piece he wasn't intending to sacrifice.

Assuming that the Pandemic Lockdown introduced lots of girls to arcane subject matter

this may be the tip of the iceberg. In 8 years this age group of girls will be enrolling in university.
