I don't understand why educated people expect that an LLM would be able to play chess at a decent level.

It has no idea about the quality of it's data. "Act like x" prompts are no substitute for actual reasoning and deterministic computation which clearly chess requires.

There are many ways to test for reasoning and deterministic computation as my own work in this space has shown .

Something weird is happening with LLMs and chess
