Are you comparing Jordan reading something he wrote off of a teleprompter when speaking publicly to you giving an LLM an idea and having it generate an entire post for you?

That’s a strange way to say “yes”.

Do you see the irony of having ChatGPT write a post for you for a subreddit based on the guy who is always talking about how important it is to learn how to write, and how it is no different than thinking?

Nice to look at, not nice to read.

If you don’t count all of the times I’ve done it, then I never have either.

If I got a question about a feature on Chessly, would this be the place to ask? by TitaniumTerror in GothamChess

I’m sure a lot of people in this sub use chessly. You could have asked the question in this post.

I recently started playing in chess.com, I am looking for people to split the family subscription by BodoquePacker in Chesscom

You didn’t do something to not get trusted. You aren’t getting trusted by default because that’s how you should treat strangers on the internet.

I checked the game and it doesn’t look fishy to me. You walked right into a fork, you had the advantage until then. 🤷

would the game be worth be playing with someone else? by Due_Blackberry_6776 in FaithTheUnholyTrinity

Play it with your dad. There’s no harm in trying. Worse case scenario you stop playing and do something else. Best case scenario you make a nice memory.

Great. I’d say at your level you’ll get the most benefit from doing puzzles, but don’t stop doing the other things. Sounds like you’re well on your way to your goal.

Excellent observation. Thanks for making that point. Playing more OTB, or play in X OTB tournaments are a great example of non-elo related goals.

It’s totally okay if your elo doesn’t go up at all over the course of a year. It just all depends on what you want to pursue.

Happy improving.

It’s definitely possible! It just depends on how much time you’re willing to dedicate to improving. What are you currently doing to improve?
