    1:25 I can't wait to achieve a deep state of sleep paralysis after 9 hours of Levi just repeating the words "danger levels" over and over again

    I’m not a huge fan of Ben Finegold or anything, but please do a breakdown of the game where he beat mittens without any assistance. Insane insane game

      I saw that game too, and I am a fan of Ben's overall, but I think the way he did it can be summarised down to: "He played very principled chess."
      I think the main reason people aren't beating it is that online chess players, and especially streamers, aren't investing near-tournament-scale effort into it - which is what the bot requires, in addition to some luck of it playing particularly aggressive moves. Ben is the kind of enthusiast who has the patience and passion to choose to invest that amount of focus into a game against a bot, so he got his deserved win. Notably he has that patience because he *likes* thinking about chess, whereas younger, more ambitious players prefer "getting better" or "winning" at chess.

      Beat Mittens with black on first try, no less! Was insanely impressive.

    One of my favourite videos yet. The panic in the voice when stockfish was messing around instead of exchanging queens is hilarious. Still not gonna buy the damn course, but great job Levy

      Don't gotta buy, he has a bunch of free stuff on the site, granted the demographic is people who don't know how to play chess beyond a beginner level.
