You would think that chess players are capable of some amount of conditional reasoning. "If I poison my opponent, then there'll be all kinds of scrutiny on my person! Including camera footage used against me." But at any level lower than Top 10 or 20 in the world, making a living is very difficult, when they have to pay for travel to tournaments, accommodation etc. while the top guys get everything for free.
Thanks for your reply on the LLM subject in the other thread, Tomasz. It does seem to be a bubble from some points of view. At the same time, it seems a matter of national defense for others.
