This is quite an impressive achievement! I wonder how long it will take before AI can beat humans in other classic strategy games like Go or Shogi.

While AI has already beaten humans in Go and Shogi, the real challenge lies in more complex real-time strategy games. There is still considerable progress to be made in that field.

I think AI can be used as a tool to enhance human experience in chess. Imagine having an AI partner already familiar with your style, ready to give advice or challenge you. Also, AI could moderate chess clubs, groups and tournaments.

I agree, I would enjoy having a sparring partner to learn from. However I am worried that an AI may be too proficient – it can be demotivating to always lose against a machine. Maybe they could implement difficulty adjustment?

It's amazing how far AI has come in chess. Still, what about the human factor, like camaraderie, emotion, learning from failure? Will AI have a place in social events such as chess clubs?

Some people argue that chess is already 'perfected', and only AI can create new, uncharted territories in strategy and tactics. What do you all think about these statements?
