HAPPY NATIONAL CHESS DAY!♟️

What happens when the greatest chess player in the world faces off against a supercomputer capable of calculating millions of moves in seconds? 

In this episode of E Train Talks, I’m excited to welcome back New York Times Bestselling author Steve Sheinkin stevesheinkin to talk about his newest book, Mind vs. Machine: The Chess Match That Changed the World!

Co-written by Chess Grandmaster  mauriceashleychess and illustrated by award-winning graphic novelist thiendog 
Thien Pham, this incredible graphic novel tells the true story of one of the most fascinating chess matches in history, when world champion Garry Kasparov faced off against IBM’s supercomputer, Deep Blue.

Steve and I talk about the history behind the match, the rise of artificial intelligence, and what makes this story so interesting, even if you don’t play chess!

And since this episode is going live on National Chess Day, what better way to celebrate than with a chess match of our own? Stick around until the end to watch Steve and me face off at the chessboard! Who will come out on top? You’ll have to watch to find out!
