I agree it is cool and fun and nice to see. But the investment here seems minimal. Preexisting image generation capabilities (with a link to Imagen-3...) plus some "prompt engineering" slapped on top of https://github.com/josefjadrny/js-chess-engine .
I was hoping that, with sufficient practice, a studious person might be able to beat a JS chess engine. However it looks like these engines are in the ELO range of 2500-3000, so unless you're a young teen with a few years to spare for improving your chess score, it's probably not possible. Even for a smart teen, it would be a stretch goal.
If that rating is accurate for these JS chess engines, even a motivated young teenager practicing and studying continuously for years STILL doesn't guarantee that they'd be able to beat it. 2500+ is the realm of GM level chess.
There's only a couple thousand chess grandmasters IN THE WORLD.

No human has ever reached 2900.

if "with a bit of practice" extends to "with a bit of research" folks used to beat engines by playing lines that the engines could not calculate correctly. you could probably find lots options to play that give you an advantage, though youd still want a pretty good elo to pull it off
That’s not really a thing anymore. Humans now can’t beat engines even with anti-engine techniques.

Maybe... but being able to play "anti-computer chess" (lots of subtle moves that have very small perceived advantages) hasn't been a particularly viable strategy since Kasparov's loss to Deep Blue in the 90s.

gear icon next to the clock in bottom left -> board view -> switch to "flat"
Chrome on Android doesn't have this setting. Responsive design fail?
Firefox on MacOS also doesn't seem to have it.
I can't find it on Chrome on MacOS, either..
EDIT: it shows up for me, once you actually start playing.
Re: GenChess
#139I'm fascinated by what prompts lead to 'Please try a different prompt.' New Zealand or Australia lead to the aforementioned error, but The Antipodes generates a set. I thought individual countries had been banned for possibly generating offensive content but it works for Great Britain.
I tried entering cocaine and it was rejected, but tried coca leaves and it looks quite good. Also my opponents pieces were coffee beans which is a nice color contrast, and with that I beat the easy computer player. My first try a couple hours ago and I chose Grasshopper Pie Milkshake and the opponent it chose was Avocado Toast, and both were green, and I lost.
Re: GenChess
#140Wait is this just an image generator? Am I missing something really cool here?
It's that and someone's toy Next.js project. The chunks from Next.js's code splitter aren't the only chunks involved in the game though - the gameplay is horrible.
