"A few months back I did a podcast with RZA and we played an impromptu game of chess after. Let me know if you'd like to see more videos of me playing chess. Here are the timestamps:<br><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxHvCbGfHvU&amp;t=0m00s"">0:00</a> - Preview<br><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxHvCbGfHvU&amp;t=0m24s"">0:24</a> - Intro<br><a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxHvCbGfHvU&amp;t=2m09s"">2:09</a> - Game starts",(reply>), Yes, more chess, please!!!,(reply>), Do you play Go (Weiqi, Igo, Baduk)?<br>What are your thoughts about it?,(reply>), What do u do?,(reply>), Mr. Fridman, you make me hopeful for the future.  Thank you, from Northern California.,(reply>), @James Gant While I do hear what you are saying, you are offering up anecdote too, just to be clear. <br><br>Any true MTG AI would not "cheat" by "hacking" a deck. <br><br>It would analyse the data set (the legal cards allowed in the format) and run a test/train split to determine the optimal deck and play strategy. <br><br>That's not cheating. That's part of the game and in theory a good AI could do this pretty well.<br><br>Simply handing an AI a mediocre deck and expecting it to win is not a valid test of the game. It's like me removing all the pieces of the chess board for an AI bar the king, and then me beating the AI. That would obviously not be a valid test. <br><br>I'm not sure what you mean when you say people have built computers using MTG. Do you mean a Turing device or an actual computer?
