what's up with the new bot "the mechanical turk"?

Maybe

I'll try defeating him

Will tell more later

Here is what he said, all copy and pasted as I beat him

Good game. You are one of the strongest opponents I've faced. Maybe even stronger than Alekhine.

This is what he said

The mechanical turk also has this line: "How many moves I can see ahead? I don't know, fifty?" Is also from a famous Capablanca match when he gets interviewed by a reporter on how many moves he can see ahead. His opponent (Reti) gets the same question and answers he sees one or two moves ahead (the best move).

This bot was easily defeated by Stockfish 16.1 (3624) in just 44 moves. It's hard to find out what the exact rating of the bot is.

It says this months player is Capablanca. So maybe they are gonna keep changing who the mystery player controlling the Turk is monthly?

Watch Gotham chess for knowing about the mechanical turk

He said this to me ... Good game. You are one of the strongest opponents I've faced. Maybe even stronger than Alekhine.

Yeah it was capablanka

Maybe or maybe not

It told me that there is a chess player inside it

#34 same for m

but Frank Marshall instead of alekhine

Do we know who it is?

no

maybe its hard to say
