    Thanks for inviting me AGAIN Wired, lots of fun!

    The match with moist and xqc is the most viewed moment in chess history and objectively the greatest moment in all of human history

    Levy could've explained the chess engine segment better. For all the programmers out there who play/ interested in chess programming, there is a recent video by Bartek Spitza. That video is amazing

    I know you didn't just call yourself an author in the first 2 seconds of the video

    12:08 "except in my case" This could be interpreted as him calling himself a genius or saying that he has no clue on how he became an IM (International Master).

    My Siri appeared when the hey siri thing popped up lol

    13:00 another fairly recent rule change (I think 50s or 60s) is that castling is not allowed across a file, it must be across a row. There's a famous chess problem that exploits this before the rule change happened.

    The most satisfying mate would be an en passant mate

    WOW LOVED THIS! He's so excited about chess it's infectious!!!

    En Passant, as well as the pawn double move, became official rules at a conference in Paris in 1492. The most significant event of that year!

    Interesting stuff… I still think Go/Baduk is the deeper game, but Chess is still fun too.

    Levy claiming an 11 year-old today could beat Capablanca based entirely on having modern engine prep 😂😂😂😂

    The question about Capablanca should have been Paul Morphy.

    So why is the number one, magnus, estimated to have an IQ of 190 if it does not matter?
    Is it just lucky? he could just as well have had 87?

    Im not a pro or anything but I’m pretty sure o-o-o# is the most satisfying checkmate

    Man I want a Domino Pro video soooo bad! These table games are awesome! 😎

    Whats that pro chess player ?so he is not a grand master ?
    Oh that poor guy…

    Long Castling checkmate is better then smothered mate

    He looks almost exactly how I thought a chess youtuber would look like

    nice content, i need more content with this guy

    Seeing Levy gets more confident feels very satisfying.

    This kid is lying. Hans Niemann doesn't talk about other player… Is this noob who uses his name to create content becuase all the world has his eyes on the rise of this talented player. Levy never, EVER would even play 10 moves agains Hans. Levy is just Hikaru's puppet. A bad one, to be precise.

    Why do they keep calling this puppet? There are tons of better chess players and more, way more charismatic than this moron.

    No way levy said hey Siri and activated my Siri 😂

    There were many better options than ghotamchess to invite. no offense

    Always thought ELO = Estimated Level of Opposition ….

    "The average good chess player probably doesn't know how to make toast"

    What a line and what a roast. Or he's talking about himself. Or both

    Chess is love 🥰
    and Levy aka GothamChess is just an amazing ambassador for the game 👍

    0:06: 👥 Chess players can't trash talk during a game, but outside of it there is plenty of drama.
    3:13: 🏆 Modern preparation tools have drastically changed the game of chess, allowing players to analyze positions far in advance.
    6:48: 🤖 Chess bots like Stockfish use powerful servers to analyze millions of positions per second and can predict future moves.
    10:48: 🏆 The biggest piece of advice for learning chess is to disconnect your ego and be prepared to lose a lot.
    13:57: 🏆 The most famous move in chess history occurred during the 1972 World Chess Championship between Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky.
    Recapped using TammyAI

    Most famous move in history-
    Levy: the one where fischer bludered his bishop

    Gold coins game:😑

    More than 2000 Grandmasters in the world, and WIRED wants to only call this dude agin and again to call him a CHESS PRO.

    he is not a pro. He is a strong amateur. I guess they couldn't get any super GM especially Hikaru (he is a bingo – famous and top 10 in strength).
