I mean they aren't large chess models. They can only do language tasks. They don't think, they predict words based on context and its similarity to the corpus they're trained on.
Is chess one of those problems that can be solved if you just memorize every single game ever played and continuously remember as they happen? Probably not. People have been trying that for centuries.
I think we're going to find a lot of things in life can't be solved by computers memorizing stuff and then doing stats on it to get an answer. Tech bros mold themselves after computers though. They think everything is just systems, algorithms, data structures, and math. And not the good math either, the mid-century diet-Rand game theory cold war shit they confuse with human nature.
A solution for chess exists, but the space is too big to calculate with current technology
