How Did ChatGPT Get ‘Absolutely Wrecked’ at Chess by an 1970s-Era Atari 2600?

OPENAI Cat a little Competitors ai chatbot On the market: Gemini,, Co -pilot,, Claude. Now add the Atari 2600 to this list. OG video game Console, which was published for the first time in 1977, was used in the experience of an engineer to see how he would manage against failures against the IA chatbot.

Using a software emulator to run Atari’s game in 1979 Video failuresCitrix engineer Robert Caruso said he was able to create a match between Chatgpt and the 46 -year -old game. The match did not go well for Chatgpt.

“Chatgpt rooks confused for bishops, missed pawn forks and trace several times where the pieces were – first blaming the Atari icons as too abstract, then is not wrong even after having passed the notations of standard failures”, wrote Caruso In a LinkedIn post.

“It made enough blunders to make fun of a 3rd year chess club,” said Caruso. “Chatgpt has absolutely destroyed in a beginner level.”

Caruso wrote that the 90 -minute match went well and that the chatbot asked several times that the match is starting again.

For decades, computers’ ability to overcome humans was a measure of their power. In 1997, IBM made the headlines when its deep blue technology defeated Grandmaster Garry Kasparov failures In a series of matches.

Caruso’s experience does not mean that Chatppt is Useless for failuresBut because it is more a tongue model than a supercomputer, it is less likely to serve this objective. A few years ago, a developer created a Chatppt Plugin called chessgpt. But it may be better to discuss failures with the Openai chatbot than trying to play against.

An Openai representative did not immediately return a comment request.

(Disclosure: Ziff Davis, CNET’s parent company in April, filed a complaint against Openai, alleging that it has violated Ziff Davis Copyrights in the training and exploitation of its AI systems.)

Look at this: Siri could become more like Chatgpt. But why?
