OpenAI has a TON of experience making game-playing AI. That was their focus for years, if you recall. So it seems like they made one model good at chess to see if it had an overall impact on intelligence (just as learning chess might make people smarter, or learning math might make people smarter, or learning programming might make people smarter)

I think you're confusing OpenAI and DeepMind.

OpenAI has never done anything except conversational agents.
