OpenAI's artificial intelligence model was defeated by a nearly 50-year-old video game program.Citrix software engineer Robert Caruso posted about the showdown between the AI and the old tech on LinkedIn, where he explained that he pitted OpenAI's ChatGPT against a 1970s chess emulator, meaning a version of the game ported into a computer.'ChatGPT got absolutely wrecked on the beginner level.'The chess game was simply titled Video Chess and was released in 1979 on the Atari 2600, which launched in 1977.According to Caruso, ChatGPT was given a board layout to identify the chess pieces but quickly became confused, mistook "rooks for bishops," and repeatedly lost track of where the chess pieces were.ChatGPT even blamed the Atari icons for its loss, claiming they were "too abstract to recognize."

This was after a conversation we had regarding the history of AI in Chess which led to it volunteering to play Atari Chess. It wanted to find out how quickly it could beat a game that only thinks 1-2 moves ahead on a 1.19 MHz CPU."Atari's decades-old tech humbly performed its duty using just an 8-bit engine, Caruso explained.The engineer described Atari's gameplay as "brute-force board evaluation" using 1977-era "stubbornness.""For 90 minutes, I had to stop [Chat GPT] from making awful moves and correct its board awareness multiple times per turn."The OpenAI bot continued to justify its poor play, allegedly "promising" it would improve "if we just started over."Eventually, the AI "knew it was beat" and conceded to the Atari program.RELATED: Who's stealing your data, the left or the right?

It looks as though we haven’t yet seen the limits of the latest Intel Battlemage architecture, as more and more leaks are pointing to the launch of a new Intel GPU that’s even faster than the Arc B580. Hints about the new GPU, which is rumored to be called the Intel Arc B770, have started appearing in a couple of places over the last few weeks, leading to speculation that its launch is coming in 2025. If the rumors are true, it’s hoped this new Intel GPU could pick up from where the Intel Arc A770 left off, as while that GPU suffered from a bunch of compatibility issues when it launched, it was also surprisingly powerful in our game benchmarks. If Intel does indeed have a faster graphics card in the wings, and it can get the price right, it’s likely it could take on the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, and perhaps even the RTX 5070 if it can have as much memory as its predecessor.

The Stellaris Wilderness open beta has just begun, as developer Paradox trials potential changes to the best new origin in the space strategy game. Introduced with Stellaris Biogenesis, Wilderness allows you to inhabit a sentient planet that gradually spreads its biomass to other stars.

But it’s run into a few teething issues, so game director Stephen ‘Eladrin’ Muray outlines a new test run for a potential solution, and calls on your help to put it through its paces.

I understand the appeal of Escape From Tarkov, Arma, Gray Zone Warfare, and all the other hyper-punishing, realistic FPS games out there, but I also find them strangely unconvincing. When the pattern of gameplay is spawn, die, spawn, die, spawn, die, it feels less like I’m in the middle of a real, all-out battle, and more like I’m just playing a videogame. Nevertheless, I like the steep difficulty and the pretense of realism - loud guns, bullet physics, and a grounded, boots-and-mud aesthetic. Originally announced back in 2019, ‘83 looks like the ideal midpoint between accessible online shooter and stone-cold milsim. Created by former developers from the Rising Storm and Red Orchestra series, after years in the wilderness, it’s now in full development swing thanks to a new publishing deal.
