    I’m quite sure that you could use a LLM to play chess and probably even successful, but you need to train it on chess notation of games instead of a pile of fanfiction and other copyright infringements. I have considered trying that but was turned off by how inaccessible LLM training is and how difficult it would be to get a sufficient amount of games written in proper chess notation. Obviously this would not be a real LLM, as it does not “speak”, but I was curious how well this would work utilizing the same technique.

        Thank you, I couldn’t think of the name, but I knew there was a machine learning chess bot out there that made cheating at online chess really common.

      You shouldn’t train an LLM for that, just any other type of machine learning.

      You don’t need text to play chess.

      Make the computer play 100,000,000 games against itself. Human games are useless as training data because humans are useless at chess compared to computers.
