Chess analysis is destroyed. I remember watching the "analysis" of Alexander Grischuk that he made of the games between Spassky and Fischer. Well. There was zero analysis.

"Look how badly they were playing! Stochfish says it is -1.5 here!". And zero explanations. Zero analysis. Zero anything. Only computer evaluation. Grischuk even himself said that he doesn't understand why the engine shows this kind of eval.

And all the comments were about "How wonderful is to see Grischuk commenting!". What is so wonderful about it? That he tells you Stockfish eval? That he PRETENDS he is analyzing anything?
So we need to replace GM commentators with LLMs ;-)
I think that Stockfish will do a better job than most of the commentators if it's heuristics are explained by text. Something like:

if ( pawns[index] == board [44] ) print "White is taking the center"

or

if ( numberOfBishops > 1 ) print "Black is better because of a two-bishop advantage"
