I thought you took the time to list every single quote that's appeared, and I wasn't sure if I should br amazed by the dedication, or pity you for how much time you had, that you could spend it all on such a thankless activity

You should have read the post more carefully. The list presented was from ChatGPT, showing how easy it is to augment the Game Review's current list. It is not Game Review's list.

I generally look at the whole text before reading. I did read it after.

This would be good if chat gpt didn’t generate fake quotes all the time :/

This could easily result in legal action from OpenAI unless chess.com got permission to use the quotes chatGPT generated... and right about now I think chess.com is feeling pretty tired of legal action wink

The ChatGPT part is irrelevant in my opinion.

Currently the AI community refers to answers that are total bs as "hallucinations". I even heard one AI insider expounding on the creativity of the hallucinations and that their client preferred it. The client being a legal firm looking for creative legal approaches. The firm would do the fact checking.

Early days yet.....

Chess.com should DEFINITELY add more quotes, and make them more interesting. I mean, what kind of quote is "Moving the same piece twice in the opening is generally a waste of tempo." EVERY chess player should know that.

Being pretty tired of something isn't really going to get your business anywhere, so if Chess.com really wants to do this, I think they should do it sooner than later

ya'll there's not even a need for ChatGPT. These resources are easy to obtain, especially for a company of cc's size. Heck, they could ask a few of the masters they communicate with on the regular, to fart out a few new quotes.

Or do a Google Search. There's plenty of options.
