Replying to @SusanPolgar
One of Fischer’s rules in the World Chess Championship Sveti Stefan/Belgrade 1992 match was that the players would not be allowed to leave the playing room/scene more often than once per every six moves played. I like this rule! What do you think Susan?

Can someone explain what ChatGPT is saying about the "randomness" of chess here? At first I thought it was taking chess960 as the default game (funny if true), but it denies doing this.

Hikaru was really impressive throughout the event and becomes World Fischer Random Champion. Congrats! Photo by David Llada. Seeking for your opinion: should FIDE be engaged in more Fischer Random events? Should longer time control there be tried?
