"Well shit happens you know?" -Napoleon Bonaparte

the final boss of chess 😳

I just realized why his move was called the “Napoleon Ultra Paradox.” It would put both chat’s king and Napoleon’s king in checkmate, but in doing so neither king could take the other in conventional chess. But Napoleon isn’t playing by the rules. The move was both stupid and brilliant, a paradox.

I love how when one chat member says “why don’t we also cheat?” The entire chat just started screaming “FUCK YOU”

The way the A.I goes from doing legal moves to doing an ILLEGAL teleport into the worst possible position kills me

We all had our laughs but imagine if the NAPOLEON ULTRA PARADOX actually worked

The fact that The Waterloo Whirlwind sounds so impressive when in actuality it is a pawn moving 1 space to the left

Napoleon: Executes his own pawn 42% of Chat: *Raises the White Flag of Surrender out of pure fear of the enemy's tactical brilliance*

at this point I want Doug to just save hundreds of hours of twitch chat and put it into an ai that generates a fake twitch chat and just not tell us

that dude who suggested Doug to make Napoleon name all his moves was a genius and a treasure to this world

Napoleon: *can cheat* His Generals: *get him out of check* Twitch:*makes a logical move* Napoleon: " MY GENERALS HAVE FAILED ME"

The AI blaming Doug for literally every single move was absolutely perfect.

Napoleon blaming his mistakes on Doug and saying "shit happens" is one of the funniest dougdoug moments of all time

"Viva la France and prepare to Shit your Pants" is THE most powerful opening line in a game of chess

if only chatgpt was as good at chess as it is at coming up with names for its moves

4:09 Parisian Guillotine 5:14 Bourbon Backbreaker 6:13 Corsican Cannibal 7:06 Marseille's Mutilator 7:56 Elba Island Invasion 8:50 Waterloo Whirlwind 10:19 Provonco Pummel 10:46 Bordeaux Blitz 11:20 Versailles Vanquisher 11:59 Savoyarde Strike 12:59 Toulouse Tornado 14:15 Marseille Mirage 15:23 Lyon Lion's Roar 16:29 (Ferocious Francois) 17:54 Fierce Flandering Flash 18:56 Avignon Avalanture (Toulouse Thunder) 19:46 Cannes Crush (Dauntless Dijon) 20:43 Marseille's Marvel 21:35 Napolean Ultra Paradox 22:38 Le Havre Hammer (Grenoble Goliath) 23:23 Montpellier Mirage 24:19 Orleans Outrage (Grenoble Goliath)

As we know, every French person can he stereotyped as the spy from tf2

Napoleon repeatedly blaming Doug for his bad moves completely unprompted is freaking hilarious.

“Shit happens, you know” -Emperor Napoleon

The funniest part is that napoleon could have ended the game in a single move by loving literally any piece onto chat’s king but chose not to out of sheer incompetence. Amazing

The harder Napoleon loses, the more arrogant and flamboyant he gets. Very historically accurate.

The "Napoleon ultra paradox" was just that. A move so epic that instead of beating his enemies, he beat his own army.

It really is fitting that Dougdoug picked Napoleon because that mf never gave up and was absolutely not above dirty tactics. He was exiled to an island, decided he was done with that and just sailed back to the mainland. The army tried to stop him but he just stood there and told them to fall back under his command and then proceeded to march them back against the government.

16:20 chess, but with named and storied pieces, also they don't really move or play like chess at all. it's just ai generated fire emblem at this point.

Gotta love how as soon as Napoleon takes his own piece, 42% of chat understands fear and realizes just how unrestrained he truly is.

Fun fact: Napoleon was actually pretty bad at chess IRL. The ‘Napoleon opening’ in chess is considered very juvenile and easily countered, but it was named after one of his favorite strategies.

Napoleon AI using random French cities names to name his strategies is the funniest thing as a French 😂

Napoleon here feels like a new d&d player who wants to do nothing but make the coolest moves possible while failing all his rolls, but the dm takes pity on him

"Let their idle gossip be drowned in the roaring tide of French victory!" Not gonna lie, hell of a line from AI Napoleon.

The fact that the AI could cheat and instead of actually taking advantage of it he just put himself in compromising positions is hilarious

10:45 Damn, when I heard Doug trained the Napoleon AI to cheat at chess, I didn't actually think it would express the late emperor's mannerisms so accurately. What kind of Napoleon Data did Doug feed the AI?

5:14 I love how Napoleon scares Doug 😆

The Napoleon AI could literally be the villain in a Yu-gi-oh show and I wouldn't even question it. He'd literally be abridged series Kaiba, breaking the rules.

The Napoleon Ultra Paradox was actually a brilliant move, by teleporting next to the king and surrounding himself with pawns he would've captured every piece around the king including the enemy king, he wins by putting himself in checkmate a paradox if you will, truly one of the grandmasters of all time.

I like how when that one chatter asked why they couldn’t also cheat to win, about 95% of chat was shaming them

One minute in and I can confirm that the AI certainly has Napoleon's ego

There was a university that held a chess ai competition a couple of years ago. everybody spent hours trying to create the best possible bot, but when they put all of them in a competition, the one who ended on top just made random moves.

The fact that the AI that CAN CHEAT made the literal worst move, putting itself in check multiple times and CHECKMATING ITSELF, is hilarious

Fun Fact: most of the lines of his attacks and names of his chess pieces are based on actual french things like french territories and cities

15:40, Napoleon is so frustrated he’s executing his own pawns to set an example to the rest of the army

Napoleon being actually funny shows just how far chatgpt has come in the past year

"Well shit happens you know?"-Napoleon Bonaparte. I actually want Napoleon to return. The archenemies of Twitch chat.

In reality, the Napoleon Ultra Paradox was the best play ever. Let me explain. So, Napoleon did put his king into checkmate, however, by putting his pawns around both him and the enemy king, it leads into a true paradox. Both kings are in a checkmate, which means that the game cannot be won or lost by either of them, leading into a stalemate

It's honestly hilarious that I can see some of those quotes from AI Napoleon as something the Spy would say

i want napoleon and his anal beads to be a recurring character in the dougdoug cinematic universe, battling the twitch chat coalition in different games

i love how the Napoleon Ultra Paradox was such a perfect move that it manages to put the king in such an exact spot on the board that it was in check by 3 pieces

10:33 Napoleon sacs his king, this should now just turn into extinction chess where the kings are capturable pieces and the last player with pieces on the board wins

20:47 oh screw you i was looking at any possible reason my pc would have made this sound until i rewatched this part like 3 times... damn xD

Everyone: AI is gonna take over the world! We’re all doomed Strongest AI on the market: *cheats himself into checkmate*

I keep re-watching the “Napoleon Ultra-Paradox” because I think the AI found the single worst space on the board and was trying to surrender

I’ll give my respect to the editor to making all of the Frenchman’s moves into words.

the only stream twitch chat is allowed to yell RIGGED

Twitch chat: makes logical moves Napoleon in every move: "AHA! You have fallen to my trap like imbeciles!"

The editor desperately needs a raise (especially for those name cards for Napoleons Moves)

12:32 "You can't castle; that puts you in check." Yeah, and also you're not allowed to castle if you're already in check.

The AIs strategy is to terrify the opponent with utter insanity

I’m actually surprised the AI didn’t just bring pieces back. Often when ChatGPT plays chess it will just bring pieces back or add new pieces to capture another (or just make a random move and say that it’s checkmate)

the fact that Napoleon is portrayed as a spy from tf2 is amazing

EPILEPSY WARNING: flashing at 18:00

the editing of this video is FANTASTIC, loved every second of it. love the content doug!

i love how doug tells the ai to name all the moves expecting things like the Sicilian defense and other normal chess terms, and then napoleon goes straight for wrestling moves

I like how ChatGPT has moments of clarity where it plays chess legitimately for a while.

True fact: The real Napoleon played against the Turk, which was believed at the time to be a chess-playing machine. He decided to try beating it by playing deliberately illegal moves to see if it would notice, to which it responded by knocking the pieces off the board.

Okay, but those move names that Napoleon comes up with are actually fire.

I love how the napoleon ultra paradox was basically him going *teleports behind you* "Nothing personal kid"

The person who suggested that Napolean should give each of his moves an overly dramatic name like a character in a fighting game or anime is a genius.

Honestly, the ending sets up greatly for napoleon to just cheat into another ai chess game in order to get revenge.

Napoleon: *Says anything French* Doug: Oooh!

It's scarily historically accurate that every time Napolean makes a mistake, he immediately blames it on his generals. It's like it's really him!

I actually want Napoleon to return. The archenemies of Twitch chat

Spy truly is a genius chess player

The fucking splash screens with every move name destroy me

I can’t believe the chess stream made it on the channel before Napoleons AI map invasion stream. Napoleons amazing techniques of using baguettes and wine as battle tactics were robbed from us! (Although chat did sweep that stream, so it might not be the best video, we was too good)

people: "ChatGPT IS GOING TO GO SKYNET ON OUR ASS!" AI in question: *Loses at chess, facing Doug's twitch chat, despite being the only one allowed to cheat*

"shit happens, y'know?" -Napoleon Bonaparte, 2023

The absolute genius of Napoleon Bonaparte is frightening. He can literally cheat, yet doesn’t utilize it well to show he’s too good for it. Truly the greatest mind of our world.

4:38 Dougdoug, don't you get it? He said he's using the Parisian Guillotine! That strategy is all about getting rid of your queen

Im never getting over how sick the napoleon ultra paradox sounds

5:44 this is not what sacking is. Sacking (or Sac'ing, as I've also seen it spelt) is short for sacrificing, and describes leaving a piece in a position where your opponent's pieces can take it. The idea behind sacking is that you can weaken your opponent's position by giving up a piece. Your opponent cannot sacrifice your pieces, so you would say the knight was taken or captured. On a side note, the only difference between "sacking" and "hanging" a piece is intention/advantage (although those two don't necessarily align). Sackings are tactical decisions that can result in an advantage, whereas hangings are accidental and can result in a disadvantage. To conclude, you can't correctly say that Napoleon "sacked" chat's knight, since it was not his piece to sac. You can't correctly say that chat "sacked" the knight either, because it did not seem intentional (and if they act like it was intentional, its probably copium). Because it was unintentional, you CAN say that chat "hung" the knight. And you can also say that Napoleon "captured", "capped" (the shorted form of "captured"), or "took" the knight, which are probably the easiest ways of communicating that. I just had to get that off my chest because entertaining videos like this will inevitably reach people who don't know much about chess, so something as simple as using the wrong term can have major outreach. At least 1 of the 1.3 million people who watched this as of right now, if not more, has now come away from this video thinking that sacking means capturing a piece, when that is very far from the truth. There is already so much public misunderstanding about chess and misusing terms like this isn't going to help much, so I feel obligated to do my part to curb misinformation and put this information out there, even if it's probably going to ultimately be ignored.

Somehow the "Bourbon Backbreaker" is simultaneously one of the most- and one of the LEAST reasonable moves Napoleon made throughout! The sheer simplicity of him casually following the rules (moving his pawn two squares) and also breaking them (snatching the knight) is just too hilarious for me!

All of Napoleon Bonaparte's special moves: 4:18 - Parisian Guillotine 5:23 - Bourbon Backbreaker 6:18 - Corsican Cannibal 7:14 - Marseille's Mutilator 8:00 - Elba Island Invasion 8:58 - Waterloo Whirlwind 10:23 - Provonco Pummel 10:52 - Bordeaux Blitz 11:28 - Versailles Vanquisher 12:04 - Savoyarde Strike 13:08 - Touluse Tornado 14:20 - Marseille Mirage 15:26 - Lyon Lion's Roar 17:58 - Fierce Flandering Flash 19:02 - Avignon Avalanture 19:50 - Cannes Crush 20:46 - Marseille's Marvel 21:37 - NAPOLEON ULTRA PARADOX!! 22:45 - Le Havre Hammer 23:32 - Montpellier Mirage 24:19 - Orleans Outrage

I love how despite beig told TO cheat, he still cheated *creatively* He only cheats the turn after one of his own pieces is taken. Like he's playing frickin Yugio

diablo the cheater has finally created something that rivals his deception

im not saying it..... im not saying it...... THERES NOTHING WE CAN DO

This was an unintentionally brilliant way to showcase the amount of human input required for AI to function even mildly correctly.

Can’t wait for DougDoug, GothamChess, Napoleon Bonaparte, Twitch Chat, ChatGPT, and Stockfish collab. This collaboration will be bigger than endgame.

DougDoug, not being able to watch or being able to participate in your streams is upsetting but coming home from school and work and getting to sit down and relive your streams and laugh myself and helps me go to sleep to do all of it again. Keep it up DougDoug, I love ur context please never stop ❤️❤️

6:14 the random scream was nothing more than the ai personally attacking doug for messing up his plans.

The fact that chat has maintained their FIVE GAME WIN streak, having NOT LOST, A SINGLE TIME EVER, even against Napoelon, is absolutely hilarious.

For those who haven't seen it, I highly recommend watching the VOD that inspired this video. It was a battle for Europe between Napoleon and Twitch Chat. The first hour was them duking it out chess-style and it was incredible. Smoke approves!

Chat has an unfair advantage because their opponent is French.

there is nothing we can do...

I love how the ai could just say “my pawn on e2 kills their king”

Napoleon's Moves: Parisian Guillotine: Leave your queen to die. Bourbon Backbreaker: Use a pawn to capture incorrectly. Corsican Cannibal: A normal knight move. Wait, what? Marseille Mutilator: A normal pawn move. What the fuck? Elba Island Invasion: Moves a knight one space diagonally to capture a piece. Back to cheating. Waterloo Whirlwind: Moves a pawn one space horizontally to capture a piece. Provonco Pummel: Moves a rook over a pawn to take... nothing. That move did nothing. Bordeaux Blitz: Moves a pawn forward one space. Man, he's really bad at this. Versailles Vanquisher: Also moves a pawn forward one space, finally getting him out of check. That took a while. Savoyarde Strike: Moves a bishop 3 spaces diagonally, putting a king in check. Toulouse Tornado: Moves a rook diagonally. Doug fucked this one up. What an idiot. Marseille Mirage: Rook jumps over a piece to take an opposing pawn. Lyon Lion's Roar: Moves a king one space diagonally, taking... his own pawn. Of course. Fierce Flandering Flash: Moves a pawn forward 2 spaces. Isn't he supposed to be cheating? Avignon Avalanture: Moves a pawn forward 2 spaces. How unexpected. Cannes Crush: Another normal pawn move. What a shocker. Marseille's Marvel: Moves a king back one space. This is getting old. Napoleon Ultra Paradox: Teleports the king into... checkmate. I don't even know why I got excited. Le Havre Hammer: Moves a pawn one space forward. Fun. Montpellier Mirage: Moves a pawn forward one space, illegally capturing. Back to cheating. Orleans Outrage: Moves a pawn as if it's a knight. Napoleon' Pieces: Ferocious Francois, known for his fierce temperament. Toulouse Thunder, regarded across the world for his bravery. Dauntless Dijon. Bold? Grenoble Goliath. Gallant? I guess?

I have no idea how chest works but I still had a lot of fun watching this. It’s great how Doug can give his own spin something simple as chest super funny

NGL AI Napoleon plays exactly how I'd expect the Spy from TF2 to play chess. Probably in the same costume to boot.

I kinda wonder what would happen if you took two different cheating AIs against each other. Maybe even turn it into a tournament.

The AI is really good at naming things. If you ever struggle for a name, give it a brief description and ask for some names for what you're doing and they're almost always bangers

this was exceptionally fun to watch, especially with the great "voice acting" of napoleon

I love how excited Doug gets when Napoleon's AI performs an actually legal move
