I asked Magnus Carlsen about the Chess GOAT. He wasn’t having it. 😂

One of my biggest flexes is that I'm followed on Twitter by the Chess World Champion AND the World Champion Challenger. 👑😎 I have great respect for both, especially because of how they carry themselves as people. They are great ambassadors to the game. ❤️♟️

Reply with something you want to ask or tell Sindarov. I’ll pick the top few to show him tomorrow, and record his reaction.

Some great questions so far but many of them have been covered in interviews/press conferences already. Give me something spicy. 🌶️

@Kasparov63 That’s why I’m learning and using AI, and applying it in chess. ♟️

Good example of the maxim "AI won’t take your job, but someone better than you at using AI might."
Aakash Gupta@aakashgupta

Anthropic has 454 open roles. The company is hiring software engineers at $320K-$405K. Their CEO, Dario, said three months ago that coding is "going away first, then all of software engineering." The paradox resolves instantly. Dario's engineers told him they don't write code anymore. They let Claude write it. They edit. They review. They architect. They didn't lose their jobs. They got faster. Anthropic grew from a small research lab to 1,500 employees in four years, adding engineers the entire time. This has played out five times in computing history. Compilers replaced assembly. Frameworks replaced boilerplate. Cloud replaced server management. Every prediction was the same: most programmers won't be needed. Every result was the same: the number of engineers grew. The global software engineer pool went from roughly 5 million in 2010 to 28.7 million today. BLS projects 17% growth in US software developer roles through 2033, adding 304,000 positions. The pool is projected to hit 45 million by 2030. When building software gets cheaper, more problems become worth solving with software. A startup that needed 10 engineers now needs 3. But 50 companies that couldn't afford to build at all now can. The denominator shrinks. The numerator explodes. Meta's engineering headcount is up 19% from January 2022. Google's is up 16%. Apple, 13%. These companies adopted AI coding tools years ago. They're using Copilot and Claude Code daily. They're hiring more engineers than before those tools existed. Every generation of "coding is dead" content creates two cohorts: engineers who freeze up, and engineers who build 10x more with the new tools. The second group has won every single time.

I think we witnessed the last Candidates tournament with players over 30, at least for the foreseeable future.

BTW, Chessbase India puts out so much high quality content. They're first to everything. They meant very well with the question. It was funny. Sindarov laughed as he answered it. They also interviewed Sindarov as a young boy, way before his success.

@LuciferAttorney @GMAlexColovic Nepo/Giri/Fabi all have the energy and ability to play. I wouldn’t count any of them out. Just based on the U30 idea, this list came to mind. I’m unattached to the prediction.
