Are you worried that artificial intelligence is about to take over the world and replace your job? Before you panic about the robot uprising, you might want to see what happens when you ask AI to play chess against itself.


In this episode, Charly covers:


βœ… Why purpose-built chess computers like Deep Blue and AlphaZero mastered chess decades ago, yet large language models struggle with basic rules

πŸ“Œ How ChatGPT moved a pawn backwards, which breaks the fundamental rules of chess and demonstrates AI's pattern-matching limitations

πŸ›‘οΈ The hilarious moment Google Bard hallucinated a chess piece into existence and confidently claimed checkmate with a knight that never existed

βœ… Why AI is brilliant for drafts, summaries, content generation and repetitive tasks, but should never be trusted to make decisions or reason through problems

πŸ“Œ How Charly uses AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude to save hours every week on social media posts, whilst still quality assuring every output

πŸ›‘οΈ The practical approach to AI adoption that focuses on genuine productivity gains rather than believing the hype about world domination
