Thanks to @10DowningStreet and @DCMS for the support and once again to all who have been working on this. International chess, chess in schools and park chess to get government support for the first time. Bloomberg article: tinyurl.com/22rkf2tr @ecfchess @schoolschess

Great article on the benefits of learning chess as a child - and as an adult! ⁦@guardian⁩ ⁦@ecfchess⁩ theguardian.com/lifeandstyle…
The joys of being an absolute beginner – for life

The joys of being an absolute beginner – for life

The long read: The phrase ‘adult beginner’ can sound patronising. It implies you are learning something you should have mastered as a child. But learning is not just for the young

this is absolutely nuts. The AI GPT-2 has learned to play chess moderately well (able to give bad human amateurs a game) – despite only being a text AI, learning from a corpus of chess notation text, and not having any concept of what a chessboard is slatestarcodex.com/2020/01/0…
