    There are chess engines floating around out there under 4kb, probably even less if you were mainlining the thing in assembly for a 6502 instruction set, still 128 bytes of RAM to work with is a punish.

    But chess is mostly a ‘solved problem’ computationally, it’s impressive constrained to the hardware but this whole Atari vs ChatGPT thing is like a grandmaster in a Mechanical Turk vs a toddler

      The story says the game is also from the '70s. So that would be before we were anywhere near video game chess being good. Much less a solved problem.
