There are lots of issues I have with them in terms of privacy, but I’m going to be very specific in asking about a certain situation and would prefer to stay on that topic if possible.

I have seen someone showing AI glasses which allow the wearer to cheat at chess. The glasses provide the wearer with computer engine moves, essentially making them unbeatable against even the strongest grand masters.

How can someone prevent this from happening, for example in a tournament match?

I don’t consider this as being an issue at the highest level of professional play, but for club and casual players they might not have the resources to deal with this.

Currently the camera and/or screen information might be fairly obvious just by looking, but assuming technology improves this could become harder to detect.

Retrospectively, it would be easy to spot a cheater and correct results, however this still spoils things by having the cheating in the first place.

It isn’t realistic to ask people to play without glasses, and I’m not aware of any way to stop cameras or ai from functioning.

So what can be done, if anything?

    I think you can take inspiration from 2014. Just be annoying, stop these people and have a long and detailed conversation and taunt them. Do this constantly. It has already worked for those “glassholes” back then.

    I mean these glasses are kind of obvious if you know what you’re looking for. And still have big and clunky parts that look off. I think you’d have to familiarize yourself with how they look. But that’s not too hard as there are very few models out there.

        I mean pretty much all women I met IRL are European. I guess that trend didn’t extend to my peer group yet. Yeah, maybe except for silly sunglasses. But I’d be wary immediately if someone didn’t take those things off indoors 😆

      OP’s premise is specifically that you cannot detect them easily at some point in the future. Are you planning on insulting every single person who wears prescription glasses?

        Oh fair enough. Guess you’d have to check people before a tournament then. It’d be similar and far easier than the Hans Niemann case in 2023. I suppose you can just demand everyone having their glasses looked at in some hypothetical future. That’s far easier than checking if some sex toy is up their arse…
