wibwobble12333··on Something weird is happening with LLMs and chess
Occam’s razor. I could build a good chess playing wrapper around OpenAPI (any version) that would consult a chess engine when presented with any board scenario, and introduce some randomness so that it doesn’t play too well.

I can’t imagine any programmer in this thread would be entertaining a more complicated scenario than this. You can substitute chess for any formal system that has a reliable oracle.

The only service performing well is a closed source one that could simply use a real chess engine for questions that look like chess, for marketing purposes. There’s nothing thought provoking about a bunch of engineers doing “experiments” against a service, other than how sad it is to debase themselves in this way.
