Originally posted by zintierivIt's decades away from being possible; a pentium 4 needs something like 20 watts to run, and it also needs memory, so you're going to have to remove quite a lot of tissue for the components and whatever you are going to power it with; also the thermal properties of these things are such that the player is going to need to not mind their real brains being cooked...
if doctors implant microprocessors to hear again ( cochlear implants ) in the temporal bone ... the technology to implant a computer seems likely ... but how this computer could tell you what you should do ( playing chess, or blackjack for example ) ???

Let's see. This one from Topalov's game against Svidler. Topalov (black) to move. Engines recommended ...Nb6 and he also did it. From my point of view he did strange (human) move... But, i'm not so good player. What do u say about this?

I hope we don't see any odd behavior from Topalovs manager as Rad spanks him tomorrow.

Originally posted by JusuhChess is just as interesting as tennis. If some of the tournaments/events were on TV/News you bet that it would be just as popular. However this sort of image (by the various chess scandals/accusations) does not improve Chess's profile.
Also, tennis is much more interesting and challenging game ....
