Magnus Carlsen defeats ChatGPT at Chess in 53 flawless moves
Magnus Carlsen has done it again, this time not against a grandmaster but an AI chatbot. The world's No. 1 chess player recently took on ChatGPT in an online match and won in just 53 moves without losing a single piece. Carlsen, who is no stranger to crushing opponents on the board, shared screenshots of the game with a casual message: 'I sometimes get bored while travelling.' The game ended with ChatGPT resigning and complimenting Carlsen on his flawless play. Although the AI had a solid start, it couldn't keep up with Carlsen's precision. That ultimately led to a clean and clinical victory for the Norwegian chess star. Magnus Carlsen gives feedback, ChatGPT offers humble analysis After the match, ChatGPT acknowledged its defeat with grace. 'All my pawns are gone. You haven't lost a single piece. You fulfilled your win condition perfectly… I resign. That was methodical, clean and sharp,' it said. Carlsen gave the AI some thoughtful feedback, pointing out that while the opening and an early piece sacrifice were interesting, it lacked proper follow-up. When asked to assess Carlsen's strength, the AI gave a rather amusing answer. It guessed a rating of 1800–2000 FIDE, clearly underestimating the reigning world champion's real abilities. AI highlights what makes Carlsen great Even in defeat, ChatGPT praised Carlsen's game, calling out several strengths. It noted how comfortably he handled the Philidor Defense, his solid positional play with moves like ...Bf8 and ...Re8, and the sharp tactical execution starting with ...Nf3+. ChatGPT also complimented his endgame control, saying Carlsen converted a small edge into a win with discipline and precision. It even mentioned how Carlsen caught illegal moves quickly, something that pointed to real over-the-board experience. While it wasn't much of a contest, the game gave fans a glimpse of Carlsen's relaxed brilliance and showed that even an AI chatbot still has a lot to learn from him. AI Masterclass for Students.
