It's really cool how he talks about Magnus being a kind of insurmountable wall with such honesty. I might be imagining things but I feel like his personality actually improved a lot, I sense more calm and kindness than a few years ago. He really has a new edge to his game as well. My gut says he might very well end up challenging Ding. Very curious what that would look like. Anyway (never thought I'd say this) I'm rooting for him! Hickey for World Champ!
@economicsjingle 27 күн бұрын
I'm actually surprised that a top player like Hikaru would resign himself to that view of Magnus. I can't help but feel that his mentality is limiting him. A big reason why Magnus is able to maintain his dominance is that he has convinced himself that he is the best in the world.

9:20 Imagine dedicating your life to a specific niche skill like chess. Practicing over and over. The discipline to (almost) never blunder a piece or a game. But no matter how hard you try, there's a guy out there who NO ONE has even a sliver of hope of beating because he is simply too good. The number 3 guy said that in the early candidates when he was working his hardest hoping to be world champion he started to realize that no one, not even himself, had any chance of beating. It's really crazy how dominate Carlson is/was.

Imagine in your neighborhood there's someone who is even better than Michael Jordan at his peak who regularly asks you to play some one vs one games. Eventually playing basketball wouldn't be fun anymore because you always get beat no matter how hard you try.

Super interesting to hear “Most top chess players definitely are not huge fans of chess” - not a perspective I’ve really considered before, but it makes sense.

Hikaru kept on saying in 2022 that he wasn't a professional player, and was playing nonchalantly and so was setting up an excuse for failure. It seems he's thinking differently now. I find watching Hikaru's streams the most instructive of any streamer. There are lots of non-master streamers who just rely on computer analysis and aren't very insightful except for repeating computer lines. In the case of Hikaru you see and hear the thinking and evaluations of a top player in the world. And when he says a computer suggests a move he doesn't understand, it just highlights how alien computer thinking is if a top player can't even understand some of their move recommendations.
