On the main chess.com thread about Mittens, many people indicate they have beaten it. True or not, I don't know. But...perhaps there is some similarity between it and real cats.

I have 3 and one in particular carries the same 'blank face around with it all day, you cannot tell what it might be thinking - "I'm looking at you while your back is turned because I am grateful for how you take care of and feed me." or "If you don't turn around in 10 sec and see that I am hungry, I am going to take these sharp claws, sneak up behind you and slash your throat!".

Not saying it is the case, but it would be refreshing not knowing if you are getting a 3200 Mittens or one that will take mercy and give you a chance....teasing and chastising you all the way.

There is room for both, but arguably chess as a game...should be fun, not a 'science'.
RIGHT!!....Now Speaking Of "FUN"....Back To Those Cats!! (Mittens) :D :lol: :wink:

Meanwhile @MagnusCarlsen: "It's just a ordinary, Soulless, Non-animalistic bot, with a picture of a kitten that plays really well. I don't like mittens.".......Hahahahah......Lmao....Hilarious!! :)
