Google Maps doesn't pretend to be good at chess. ChatGPT does.

A toddler can pretend to be good at chess but anybody with reasonable expectations knows that they are not.

Plot twist: the toddler has a multi-year marketing push worth tens if not hundreds of millions, which convinced a lot of people who don't know the first thing about chess that it really is very impressive, and all those chess-types are just jealous.

Have you tried feeding the toddler gallons of baby-food? Maybe then it can play chess
