Scientists want to play aliens at chess, what would be your strategy?

If they could read your mind could you trick them into believing you’re about to move one way but then you move another

I think that would probably work as long as you don't know the other way you're going to move ahead of time.

sshhhh, nowthey'll start passing THAT out on halloween.

Anyways, I'd teach them about chess and some openings so the alien at least has a chance, but still play on a physical board because, secretly, I won't tell them about checks and beat them without them even knowing.

As most of my thoughts in chess are "why don't they resign already" them reading my mind might help lol.

Aliens are not that good at chess due to their reliance on AI. They're big time cheaters though. What with their telepathy and implanted AI chip.

No their AI is better than Stockfish.

It depends what type of alien

Avatar of BoardMonkey

That's true. The Greys are pretty good chess players.

Avatar of OperationalPrudence

I heard the greys are just cybernetic organisms so they would be more like playing a bot or computer

What is the ELO of that alien . I hear that computer relies on commands . So I think 0 ELO

We do not know if aliens exist, plus even if they do exist, they won’t know what chess is XD
