[@TheScholar92]

Do you know where I could get a chess set like the one in front of Garry in this vid?

[@leonardoludaescher6227]

I like how he's trying to sound modest but knows to himself that he is very good!

[@dandiaz19934]

What an amazing analogy: "We have cars, but no one's going to cancel running competitions. We have Usain Bolt, but no one is going to have him competing against a Mercedes Benz".

[@dazzid]

big respect to the Grandmaster Garry

[@alanimranali]

Garry's masterclass is great for beginners and intermediate players. The finesse and pace of the videos together with Garry esposing on some overarching principles really made it a master class

[@alanimranali]

nada

[@Thomreise]

Alan Ali kkk

[@xxxwlodzio]

everywhere :D most common chess set

[@krishnabharay1235]

Check out House of Staunton

[@snookslayer4559]

I love Kasparov as much as the next chess nut.... but that was a 21 minute commercial. Buying his instruction videos so I can "feel his enthusiasm and love of the game" doesn't sound like a smart investment.

[@markswaggerty4958]

W Bennett ok

[@anthonyx3576]

He added the most important part in those 6 hours

[@horplesmoff]

Lol did you actually listen to anything he said tho?

[@RiceBaiiKhao]

Some say that machine learning has killed chess. As Kasparov said, some believe it removed the magic from chess. I think it is caused by the fact that these people perceived themselves/chess players to be the creators of those beautiful games and combinations. And with the arrival of machine learning and its relative domination of chess, it feels like humans have to comfort themselves with the role of being an observer, helpless and unable to compete in the race of creation ("I created this game first"). I believe, we can change this paradigm; to see ourselves and the machines not as creators, but rather, as explorers of chess beauty. To use machines/engines to help us discover beautiful games of chess - with eyes of a wanderer, and set aside the arrogant idea of being the creator of that beauty. It always existed whether we were there or not.

[@stopwritingthatreplyjohnat6638]

No it's because machines change the game. A couple of years ago we had stockfish and stockfish played the best moves. Stockfish was happy to focus on the kingside and attack it was about 3400 rated and that was how chess players were also happy to play. Then alpha zero came along and showed us that queenside development was as important and post alpha zero games between humans have completely different rhythms where someone like Carlsen will dominate the kingside then retreat and go for the queenside. Machines do change the game and their objective analysis such as the revelation that the ruy lopez is the best opening and the berlin defence is the best response, although I don't expect humans will understand why until alpha zero sheds some more light on it.

[@guillermouristamartinez3688]

Excelente maestro kasparov , es una lastima que ya este retirado

[@thomasalicea8877]

Great show

[@malegupta8404]

The logo is just too try-hard. Typical 21st century 'innovation'.

[@jeromekwasniowski8293]

😮great to learn chess...i think our brain is some kind of computer,but computers can't forget!

[@ahmedeliwa1682]

I loved his master class

[@Siddharth_dif_n_dif_Co.427]

Same here sir.

[@Siddharth_dif_n_dif_Co.427]

May I have a chance to have a memorable interview?

[@Siddharth_dif_n_dif_Co.427]

I want to discuss sicilian defence moves

[@richwaight]

Great video and interview! :)

[@OmkarChakradeo]

We want to see if kasparov focuses we want to see if he is true

[@Siddharth_dif_n_dif_Co.427]

I have No hour. Sir!

[@cyrusseyrafi1131]

At about 2:16, Garry says "progress ranging from the level of ____ to 1700." What did he say?

[@KartikSubbarao]

"Progress ranging from the level of thirteen to seventeen hundred"

[@BLUEGENE13]

did he just call fide a money laundering operation?

[@poohoff]

Which it is

[@ethanolhaines4139]

It is

[@footballmaster_2]

Buen video.

[@Corndog4382]

What is that board? Anyone know?

[@pedrochalaco1]

I think he can beat some top players in classical.🤔

[@bossanon5011]

nice

[@Siddharth_dif_n_dif_Co.427]

At first L👀k it's very beautiful game.

[@douglasquaid7550]

This video should be illegal. 6 000 000 thumbs down.

[@Hotmedal]

Lol "money laundering operation". Someone definitely needs to take Aegon and FIDE to court and brutally own them. Like chess24 did but bigger.

[@harrisonshaw513]

Not worth buying masterclass, watch it free on KZbin. Want to use cheap tactics on advertising your material calling this an interview pshhh.

[@phantompower]

Unsubbed, you want to label videos "interviews" when really it's just a commercial, you can waste someone else's time.

[@magicaryeh]
