There are lots of issues I have with them in terms of privacy, but I’m going to be very specific in asking about a certain situation and would prefer to stay on that topic if possible.
I have seen someone showing AI glasses which allow the wearer to cheat at chess. The glasses provide the wearer with computer engine moves, essentially making them unbeatable against even the strongest grand masters.
How can someone prevent this from happening, for example in a tournament match?
I don’t consider this as being an issue at the highest level of professional play, but for club and casual players they might not have the resources to deal with this.
Currently the camera and/or screen information might be fairly obvious just by looking, but assuming technology improves this could become harder to detect.
Retrospectively, it would be easy to spot a cheater and correct results, however this still spoils things by having the cheating in the first place.
It isn’t realistic to ask people to play without glasses, and I’m not aware of any way to stop cameras or ai from functioning.
So what can be done, if anything?
AFAIK you are not allowed any kind of mobile devices during chess games.
Bluetooth has a pretty good range and low power consumption.
Ok but we were talking about a faraday cage scensrio.
A phone up you ass, then you’re good to go regardless of any cage.
I’ve been seeing this suggestion in various replies and it’s got me thinking people are just seeking an excuse at this point. 😂
