Among those who had had little choice, was Alexander Alekhine, the World Chess Champion. Alexander is a man looking for a life away from sitting alone in his hotel room, with nothing but a chess board on a table and dinner in his lap. He is looking for inspiration, looking for his muse and ultimately; a way to return to his previous glory. Perhaps he has found it…?

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Monday, December 16, 2024. This is Nelson John, let's get started. If you're considering flying between India's major cities at the end of the year, you're in luck—airfare prices have significantly dropped. Data from ticket booking platforms indicates that airfares on key metro routes have decreased by as much as a third compared to last year. For instance, flights between Chennai and Kolkata have seen the largest reduction, with fares down by 28%, followed by Kolkata to Bengaluru with a 27% drop. This decrease in prices is partly due to lower demand for metro-to-metro travel during the holiday season, compounded by the economic slowdown which has affected spending habits. However, if you're planning to head to smaller towns or popular holiday destinations, expect to pay more. Daanish Anand reports on the dwindling airfare between metro cities, in today's Primer. The Indian government is considering a fresh capital infusion for its struggling public sector general insurers in the next fiscal year to bolster their operations and help them meet regulatory standards. This move, potentially involving ₹4,000-5,000 crore, is aimed at improving the solvency ratios of National Insurance, United Insurance, and Oriental Insurance, which currently fall well below the mandatory threshold. The solvency ratio, critical for insurers, measures the excess capital they hold over potential claims, with a regulatory minimum set at 150%. Despite some intermittent profits, these insurers have generally underperformed, with solvency ratios lingering in the negatives by the end of FY24. The government's potential capital support is contingent on the insurers demonstrating consistent improvement in financial metrics, Subhash Narayan and Rhik Kundu report. In the branding world, IndiGo's squabble with Mahindra and Mahindra over the "6E" label is a classic case of how a simple code can evolve into a significant brand asset. For over 16 years, IndiGo has used "6E" more than just as a flight code—it's become a key part of their brand identity, even cleverly marketed to sound like "sexy." The issue popped up when Mahindra decided to use "6e" for its new electric SUV. This led to a debate over trademark rights across different product classes—IndiGo's trademark is registered for transport under Class 39, not vehicles - which falls under Class 12. Legal experts Gaurav Laghate spoke to, suggest that if IndiGo had also registered in Class 12, they might have had a stronger case. As it stands, the chance of customer confusion seems low. As both companies wait for a legal resolution expected next year, with Mahindra holding off on using "6e”.After clinching the title as the youngest World Chess Champion ever, Gukesh Dommaraju's fame has quickly caught the attention of marketers looking for fresh faces to endorse their brands. Over just one weekend, companies from various sectors, including FMCG and gaming, were keen to align with the chess prodigy, reports Varuni Khosla. Gukesh now commands an endorsement fee ranging from ₹70 lakh to ₹1 crore annually. His historic victory over Ding Liren in Singapore not only broke a record previously held by Garry Kasparov but also elevated him to a status comparable to chess legend Viswanathan Anand. His triumph has rekindled interest in chess as a sport that's both intellectually rigorous and "cool," shifting its public perception significantly.In a flourishing sector, India's table grape growers are reaping significant benefits, with profits soaring in good crop years. The country has risen to become one of the top five global exporters of table grapes, finding a strong market in high-standard international supermarkets. This success is primarily driven by meticulous adherence to quality standards demanded by Western consumers, such as specific berry sizes and sugar content. In the fiscal year 2023-24, India exported grapes valued at ₹3,461 crore, marking a 36% increase year-on-year and a significant growth over the past decade. Nashik, Maharashtra, has been pivotal in this expansion, contributing nearly half of the export volume, thanks to its conducive climate and expertise in viticulture. Sayantan Bera writes about how the grapes of Nashik, have been conquering the world. 

The world of competitive chess has crowned a new World Chess Champion. Morning Report producer and chess player Troy Matich has more.

India's Gukesh Dommaraju has become the youngest ever world chess champion beating his Chinese opponent in a match that lasted almost three weeks. The 18-year-old also surpassed the legendary Russian Garry Kasparov, who won the title aged 22 almost 40 years ago.

Tonight, we'll read the opening to “The Exploits and Triumphs, In Europe, of Paul Morphy, The Chess Champion.” It was published in 1859 and written by Frederick Milnes Edge, who was Morphy's secretary.  Paul Morphy, born in New Orleans in 1837, was considered the greatest chess player of his era. He was a child prodigy who learned to play chess simply by watching family members play. When he was only 9 years old, he was hailed as the best chess player in his city. This book describes Morphy's trip to Europe in 1858. After his triumphs in Europe, he was considered the unofficial World Chess Champion, as official championship tournaments were only held starting in 1886, almost thirty years later. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Autistic podcast hosts, Dr. Angela Lauria and Matt Lowry, LPP, delve into the fascinating world of chess, exploring its profound connection to the Autistic community through the story of legendary chess player Bobby Fischer and the popular TV show, The Queen's Gambit. Chess is considered a quintessential part of Autistic culture, much like trains or Star Trek. The intricate, strategic nature of chess captivates Autistic children, teens, and adults, drawing them into a realm where deep focus and pattern recognition are highly rewarded.“And I know for me, a lot of my drive to success in all things is, I've known I have this intense and eccentric and unlikable personality.  So, I'm going to prove my value with my accomplishments…That doesn't always work, and I'm always shocked.” –AngelaBobby Fischer was a chess prodigy who showed many traits common to people on the autism spectrum, like intense focus, a preference for logic/rules, and differences socializing. He became World Chess Champion in 1972, defeating the Soviets during the Cold War era.The fictional character Beth Harmon from The Queen's Gambit was loosely based on Fischer. Harmon navigates the complexities of life and chess while exhibiting traits that resonate with many Autistic individuals.Autistic traits like strong pattern recognition, bottom-up thinking, inductive reasoning, and monotropic focus lend themselves well to excelling at chess. Chess doesn't ask players to make small talk, but instead focuses on strategy and problem solving, allowing Autistics to socialize in an authentic and culturally appropriate way.“When you find the Autistic community, when you find people who get you, you can be a delightful human being and talk about all the interesting things that you want to talk about. And they'll say, ‘Oh, my, what a wealth of information that was. I love that info dump!'” –MattHighly talented Autistic chess players exemplify the Autistic culture virtues of pursuing excellence through interests, valuing fairness and morality, and respecting an opponent's strategic skills.On this captivating virtual culture trip, the podcast hosts uncover the deep-rooted connection between chess, Bobby Fischer, The Queen's Gambit, and the Autistic community, celebrating the power and beauty of neurodiversity through the timeless game of strategy.Do you love chess or other strategy games?

How does a computer master a very human game? And when they face off, who will come out on top? Special thanks to our guests: Bruce Pandolfini, veteran chess teacher, author, and consultant on the Netflix series The Queens Gambit; Tom Standage, historian and editor of The Economist series The World Ahead; Murray Campbell, A.I. research scientist at IBM and creator of Deep Blue; and Feng Hsiung Hsu, system architect of Deep Blue and author of Behind Deep Blue: Building the Computer that Defeated the World Chess Champion.

Hou Yifan is a chess grandmaster, four-time Women's World Chess Champion, and the second highest-rated female player of all time.

Chess has a new world champion – 30-year-old Ding Liren from China. He defeated Russia'a world no. 2 Ian Nepomniatchi to become only the 17th player in chess history to wear this crown. He is the first ever Chinese and the first Asian since Viswanathan Anand to be achieve this. This year's world title championship match took place under the looming absence of defending champion Magnus Carlsen, who refused to defend his title citing a lack of motivation. Interestingly enough, speaking to the media after his victory, Liren remarked, “For me, it's not so important to become world champion. I always wanted to become the best player in the world.” Will Liren, who wears the mantle of ‘world champion', be accepted as the best player in the world? Will Carlsen ever come back to pit himself against the new world champion? And what does it mean for the chess world to have its latest world champion from Asia, and from China in particular?

Bobby Fischer was the Muhammad Ali of chess. He became the youngest person to ever win the US chess championship at the age of 14 and the only American-born player to ever win the World Chess Championship. But after defeating the Soviet Boris Spassky in 1972, Bobby Fischer never played another professional match for over twenty years. Instead, he became a recluse, preferring privacy over prize money.  Not much is known about Bobby's life after his 1972 win, but this episode premieres newly discovered tapes of Fischer, discussing his time in the Worldwide Church of God – the doomsday apocalyptic cult this series is devoted to.In these tapes, which were made in Dec 1976 and Jan 1977,  Bobby discusses his views on god, sex, and chess and, especially,  how he came to resent Herbert W. Armstrong and his son Garner Ted, the church's leaders.  These tapes provide a riveting snapshot of Bobby's mental state during the time when he had essentially disappeared from public view and has great crossover appeal between those interested in cults and those interested in chess. The original tapes were about 5 hours long, and the best highlights are featured in this 30+ minute episode, which also features commentary from David Edmonds, co-author of Bobby Fischer Goes to War. I would like to extend a special thank you to David Edmonds, Bill Hughes, and Dixon Cartwright for their commentary in this episode, and to Hughes and Margaret and Len Zola for speaking to me on background about these tapes.If you would like to read the Ambassador Report interview with Bobby that is mentioned in this episode online, you can check it out here: https://hwarmstrong.com/ambassador.report/ambassador/ar2.htmlIf you would like to support Worldwide: The Unchosen Church, you can tell us to host it or toast it.  Support will go to either hosting this show on Buzzsprout so others can find it for years to come (host it), or if you just want to appreciate the show, tell us to toast it and our team will gladly drink a beer and cheers to you.

Vladimir's course is called Thinking in Chess: A How to Guide, and it offers a Super GM level framework on how to think about preventing your opponent's plans. There are many great insights in this interview, so I hope you all enjoy listening to it as much as I did speaking with him. Please read on for more details, timestamps and relevant links.   0:00- We begin by discussing Kramnik's rise in the 1990's, including his breakout tournament at the 1992 Manila Olimpiad, a tournament for which he was a surprise choice to compete on the stacked Russian team. 08:30- Vladimir recently concluded his match with GM Vishy Anand in a new variant called “no-castling chess.” He discusses the match and the future of chess variants.  Mentioned: GM Vasyl Ivanchuk 22:45- Perpetual Chess is brought to you in part by AImchess.com.

What can decision-making on the chessboard teach us about decision-making in the game of life? World Chess Champion and human rights activist Garry Kasparov, joins your host, Executive Director of the Alliance for Decision Education, Dr. Joe Sweeney, to discuss Garry's hunger for chess and analyzing his games, his experience facing fierce competition, the importance of making your decisions in the right environment, and why today's youth should recover the spirit of exploration, despite potential risks. You'll also hear about the motto hung above Garry's bed as a teenager: “If not you, who else?" and why “working like a machine” may no longer be a compliment in today's age of technology.

He was a rising star in Russian chess, but after the First World War he fled the country to settle in France. Not long after, he found himself at the top of the chess world as the fourth World Chess Champion. But then, during the Occupation of France in 1940, the Nazis made him an offer that, most of the evidence suggests, he accepted. This is the story of Alexander Alekhine.The game is Alekhine vs. Lasker, Zurich (1934).

Tonight, we’ll read the opening to “The Exploits and Triumphs, In Europe, of Paul Morphy, The Chess Champion.” It was published in 1859 and written by Frederick Milnes Edge, who was Morphy’s secretary.Paul Morphy, born in New Orleans in 1837, was considered the greatest chess player of his era. He was a child prodigy who learned playing chess simply by watching family members play. When he was only 9 years old, he was hailed as the best chess player in his city.This book describes Morphy's trip to Europe in 1858. After his triumphs in Europe, he was considered the unofficial World Chess Champion, as official championship tournaments were only held starting in 1886, almost thirty years later.— read by 'N' —Remember to head to headspace.com/snoozecast for a free one-month trial of Headspace’s clinically proven meditation app.

14th World Chess Champion and one of the most respected players in the game, GM Vladimir Kramnik talks about what goes on behind the scenes during major chess tournaments and World Championship events. We uncover what goes on beyond the chessboard and take a peek into the politics and power plays in the chess organization. Being the decorated player that he is, Vladimir has a lot of very interesting stories, and experiences to impart to our audience. Vladimir also tells us how he got his start in the world of chess. He shares his views on some practical questions about match preparation, adjustments from mistakes, identifying your own weaknesses, how to get the most out of your team, and a whole lot more. Of course, a popular topic that has recently injected life into some of the dormant chess players, and sparked interest from those who have yet to try the sport is the Netflix show, The Queen's Gambit. Vladimir shares his thoughts on the series and the story behind it.    Follow Vladimir on Twitter: https://twitter.com/KramnikVb Here is Vladimir's first appearance on the show: https://youtu.be/EF926Piiumo Here is the documentary Vladimir talked about, Bobby Fischer Against the World: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqA7WE-12Po   CONNECT:  Subscribe to this channel: https://bit.ly/runchuks-yt Subscribe to newsletter: https://www.runchukspodcast.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/RunchuksP Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/runchukspoker Coaching: https://bit.ly/bts-coaching   PODCAST INFO:  Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/2XlvTro Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2ECWIAF YouTube playlist: https://bit.ly/podcast-yt   OUTLINE: 00:00:00 Intro 00:01:35 The politics behind chess 00:05:05 Bobby Fischer Against The World 00:06:12 Major Chess Tournaments 00:09:10 Soviet Union chess 00:13:05 Alexander Alekhine 00:16:32 Chess during the Cold War period 00:21:00 The path to World Chess Championship 00:29:04 Official and unofficial World Chess Champions 00:31:29 Kasparov vs Karpov 00:43:12 Kasparov leaving FIDE 00:48:21 FIDE and PCA 00:49:56 Financing the road to the top 00:59:17 The story behind The Queen's Gambit 01:00:40 Judit Polgár 01:05:44 Back to The Queen's Gambit 01:08:56 Vladimir Kramnik's first chess teacher 01:13:18 What hooked Vladimir to play chess 01:17:10 First competitive match 01:20:50 Dealing with losses 01:24:34 Help with the preparation 01:30:34 Eye-opening moments 01:36:30 Understanding the pattern of mistakes 01:40:27 Chess and poker parallels 01:44:15 Vladimir Kramnik Round 3

There is no question that the Netflix show, The Queen’s Gambit has taken the world by storm. In a year when the world is upside down and everything is crazy with Covid-19, it is kind of fitting that a show based upon a cerebral game garnering all the attention. At Kaspersky, we have a long history with chess and are the official cybersecurity partner of the FIDE World Chess Championship series. My wife had watched the show and a member of our PR team pitched me the idea of watching the show as part of a podcast. While I was skeptical of the fit for the weekly chats that Dave and I have, my friend Oksana noted that she had some angles that my amateur chess mind did not have in mind. You see, my dear Russian friend had a good opportunity that, was in fact, too good to pass up. Instead of our usual format for the Transatlantic Cable Podcast, Dave and I welcomed on Costin Raiu – who you may know from his research work at Kaspersky – a noted chess lover and Dinara Saduakassova an International Master and Womens Grandmaster, 4-times World Chess Champion and Asian Women Champion. During our 30+ minute chat, we discuss everything from Beth Harmon to international chess tournaments, getting kids involved with the games, stopping cheating and how computers have impacted the game.

Jennifer Shahade is a 2 time US Women's Chess Champion, she's a PokerStars ambassador. She is also an author, speaker, and host of The Grid, which received the award for the best poker podcast this year. We started off by discussing the Netflix series The Queen's Gambit, and what made it click for the wider audience. We talked about how games like chess and poker mold us – what we learn from these games, and what makes them beautiful. We also talk about Jennifer's own podcast, its underlying idea, and where she's going with it.    Connect to Jennifer:  Twitter: https://twitter.com/JenShahade Web: https://jennifershahade.com/ Podcast: https://thepokergrid.com   CONNECT: Subscribe to this channel: https://bit.ly/runchuks-yt Subscribe to newsletter: https://www.runchukspodcast.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/RunchuksP Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/runchukspoker Coaching: https://bit.ly/bts-coaching   PODCAST INFO:  Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/2XlvTro Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2ECWIAF YouTube playlist: https://bit.ly/podcast-yt   OUTLINE:  00:00:00 Intro 00:01:51 The Queen's Gambit 00:09:15 The chess boom 00:11:01 What chess teaches us about life 00:22:34 Learn to lose 00:29:51 A privilege or a curse 00:34:25 Garry Kasparov on The Queen's Gambit 00:39:59 The next big poker movie 00:43:46 Community and culture 00:48:17 Women in chess 00:52:48 What makes a movie appealing to a wider audience 00:58:47 Molly's Game 01:00:00 Getting stuck in the game - a blessing or a curse 01:06:08 Achieving balance 01:07:44 Sticking with the game because of sunk cost 01:13:26 Teaching chess 01:17:51 What makes chess beautiful? 01:24:03 Limited time to make a decision 01:28:51 Memorization and pattern recognition 01:32:17 Chess end-game and poker river 01:35:20 Is poker beautiful? 01:40:38 The Poker Grid podcast 01:49:41 Favorite podcasts 01:54:06 Learning from the guests 01:59:57 169 hands 02:08:01 Choosing guests 02:14:21 Having fun 02:18:36 Blindfold chess 02:21:13 The goal of The Poker Grid   If you enjoyed this episode, you might also like my conversation with GM Vladimir Kramnik (14th World Chess Champion) - https://youtu.be/EF926Piiumo

What does it take for a woman to excel in the ruthlessly competitive, male-dominated world of chess? Kim Chakanetsa meets two outstanding female players from Hungary and China to find out. Judit Polgar is the strongest female chess player of all time. As a child prodigy she broke Bobby Fischer's record to become the youngest grandmaster, aged 15. She went on to beat the World No 1 Garry Kasparov, after he had said women shouldn't play chess. Judit says she made a decision very early not to play in the Women's competition, because she wanted to play the best, and they were men. She remains the only woman ever to place in the top 10 players in the world, despite retiring 4 years ago. Hou Yifan is widely considered to be the best woman playing chess today. She has been the Women's World Chess Champion three times, the youngest ever to win the title, as well as the youngest female player ever to qualify for the title of grandmaster. Yifan has now decided not to play in the Women's Championship anymore. She took time out of competing to study for a degree and is about to do a Masters at Oxford University, because she believes doing other things is beneficial to her and to her chess.

  "A good human plus a machine is the best combination".   Garry Kasparov is a former World Chess Champion, writer, and political activist. He is widely regarded as the greatest chess player of all time, but it was his famous matches against the IBM super-computer Deep Blue in 1996-97 where he wrote his name into history and brought conversations around artificial intelligence, and chess, into the mainstream. Garry is a 'beautiful mind' who believes that we should make decisions with our hearts and that normal people, using good tools, can achieve remarkable things.   "If you don't take risks you don't drink champagne".   In this episode we look deeper into Garry's 'ten words' by analysing one of his greatest presentations ~ his TED Talk from April 2017. By looking at the way that he structures his talk, we can begin to understand what makes him so unique, not just as a chess player, but as a storyteller. Doing something I've not done before, I hope you enjoy this "live" behind the scenes look at his presentation, as we look together at what makes a great story. I hope you enjoy his deep-dive into Garry's mind (from my point of view) as much as I enjoyed putting this episode together.   "We ask too much of technology and not enough of ourselves".   ** See BONUS CONTENT for a special analysis of Kasparov's keynote from professional speaking coach Martin Brooks @Impacttologist **   MY SHOW NOTES     SHOW LINKS Garry Kasparov's TED Talk (Transcript in 23 languages) Garry's Masterclass Garry's "official" bio Alpha Go 'Official Trailer' featuring Google' Deep Mind The (Best) Jobs of the [near] future will be AI Trainers (Bloomberg) AI-Spy from The Economist "Your strategy needs a strategy" by Jeremy Waite (Linkedin) IBM Watson 'Personality Insights".

GUEST Viswanathan "Vishy" Anand is an Indian chess grandmaster and a former World Chess Champion, considered as one of the greatest chess players of all time. Anand was the first recipient of the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna Award in 1991–92, India's highest sporting honour. In 2007, he was the first sportsman to receive India's second highest civilian award, the Padma Vibhushan. Harnessing the full potential of our mind and staying relevant in the context of advances in machines is something that all of us wrestle with as we go through our respective journeys. Chess is a great canvas for us to explore perspectives on these two questions. During the 90 odd minutes that I spent with him in Chennai, Vishy spoke candidly about how he got into Chess as a career, how he thought about his own development at various stages of his growth, how he harnesses his mind and leverages the right brain and the left brain, how EQ matters as one grows through the ranks, how he stays level-headed and grounded despite his towering achievements, his thoughts on harnessing human potential and more. I hope you find the conversation as purposeful as I did. . We value your feedback on the podcast. If you have 3 minutes, please visit http://bit.ly/p2pfdback.

Shortcuts -  [5:40] - I asked Garry, "What separated you from people just as talented?" He interrupted. Finally! I found my match! "Wait, wait wait, slow down," he said. "'As talented' is a stretch." He said he was lucky. His upbringing made him a champion. "I was born in a family where chess was part of the culture. My father and mother usually spent their winter nights looking at the newspaper chess sections, solving problems. Also, I was born in the Soviet Union so when my talent was discovered, I had an opportunity to be taught by semi-professionals. Then professionals. The framework for my talent to be discovered and to be polished was there." He said, "You may call that luck, but the talent was quite unique." That's how you become a peak performer. You have to pursue your talent and get a little lucky. But it's never just luck. "As soon as I discovered chess I started moving very quickly." He beat the kids his own age and older. By age 12 he was the Soviet junior champion. Peak performance comes from talent, luck and an ability to move up in the ranks faster than your competition. How do you do that? [11:44] - I feel like I'm always trying to figure out my life. I'm always planning. Because I think if I subtract X from my life, add Y, and multiply by 100, I'll be happy. Garry told me how he takes a step back. He said you need to see the big picture. That's why he started drawing all his chess matches. After each game, Garry drew the board, he looked at what happened and he saw where he went wrong. "I could feel at at every game, I was getting better," Garry said. "I was learning." That's why I write everyday. It takes my mind out of the equation. I get to see what I'm doing. And how my life is. I stop making moves. And I just breathe. Then I see clearly. The key is to create a ritual of reflection. Writing, drawing. Do something that let's you see the board. See your life. [27:40] - Sometimes Garry had ten steps planned out. Other times, nothing. Garry said, "In the cases where you don't have a clear preference, go with your natural instinct."  [34:55] - Garry was beat by Deep Blue, IMB's "genius" computer. It was the first time a machine beat the human brain at chess. People said it was a revelation. And the end was near. The same thing happened when ATM's were invented. Everyone thought bank tellers were going away. .And before that the elevator operator was eliminated. People went on strike. "This is a normal development of technology," Garry said. "If you have something really disruptive, it means it kills jobs before it creates new jobs." Sometimes jobs are replaced. Sometimes they're not. As humans our biggest shortcoming is that we let our fear precede any real threat. Machines don't have fear. But they also don't have the ability to dream... "We all do have fears," Garry said. "The question is how do we handle it... I want people to not be afraid of this progress because there are so many things we can bring back if we start dreaming again. By the way machines cannot dream. Even in sleeping mode."  -- Also, if you like today's show, subscribe! Then you won't have to check back and you'll be first to hear new episodes.

Shortcuts -  [5:40] - I asked Garry, “What separated you from people just as talented?” He interrupted. Finally! I found my match! “Wait, wait wait, slow down,” he said. “‘As talented’ is a stretch.” He said he was lucky. His upbringing made him a champion. “I was born in a family where chess was part of the culture. My father and mother usually spent their winter nights looking at the newspaper chess sections, solving problems. Also, I was born in the Soviet Union so when my talent was discovered, I had an opportunity to be taught by semi-professionals. Then professionals. The framework for my talent to be discovered and to be polished was there.” He said, “You may call that luck, but the talent was quite unique.” That’s how you become a peak performer. You have to pursue your talent and get a little lucky. But it’s never just luck. “As soon as I discovered chess I started moving very quickly.” He beat the kids his own age and older. By age 12 he was the Soviet junior champion. Peak performance comes from talent, luck and an ability to move up in the ranks faster than your competition. How do you do that? [11:44] - I feel like I’m always trying to figure out my life. I’m always planning. Because I think if I subtract X from my life, add Y, and multiply by 100, I’ll be happy. Garry told me how he takes a step back. He said you need to see the big picture. That’s why he started drawing all his chess matches. After each game, Garry drew the board, he looked at what happened and he saw where he went wrong. “I could feel at at every game, I was getting better,” Garry said. “I was learning.” That’s why I write everyday. It takes my mind out of the equation. I get to see what I’m doing. And how my life is. I stop making moves. And I just breathe. Then I see clearly. The key is to create a ritual of reflection. Writing, drawing. Do something that let’s you see the board. See your life. [27:40] - Sometimes Garry had ten steps planned out. Other times, nothing. Garry said, “In the cases where you don’t have a clear preference, go with your natural instinct.”  [34:55] - Garry was beat by Deep Blue, IMB’s “genius” computer. It was the first time a machine beat the human brain at chess. People said it was a revelation. And the end was near. The same thing happened when ATM’s were invented. Everyone thought bank tellers were going away. .And before that the elevator operator was eliminated. People went on strike. “This is a normal development of technology,” Garry said. “If you have something really disruptive, it means it kills jobs before it creates new jobs.” Sometimes jobs are replaced. Sometimes they’re not. As humans our biggest shortcoming is that we let our fear precede any real threat. Machines don’t have fear. But they also don’t have the ability to dream… “We all do have fears,” Garry said. “The question is how do we handle it… I want people to not be afraid of this progress because there are so many things we can bring back if we start dreaming again. By the way machines cannot dream. Even in sleeping mode.”  -- Also, if you like today’s show, subscribe! Then you won’t have to check back and you’ll be first to hear new episodes.

Garry Kasparov, Claudio Guarnieri, Geraldine de Bastion With this session, we aim to facilitate an informed and well-tempered debate that moves towards a better understanding of cyberwarfare, as well as other interferences within political processes – in doing this, we will highlight the multitude of new and troubling forms of “Hacking Democracy” that are by far not limited to the digital realm. Garry Kasparov (13th World Chess Champion, Oxford Martin Fellow, fierce tweep, Chairman for the Human Rights Foundation), and Avast Security Ambassador, and Claudio Guarnieri (Security Researcher with Citizen Lab, fierce tweep, Senior Technologist with Amnesty Technology and Security without Borders) will discuss the digital impact on human rights and fundamental values, and what can be done to keep up with these threats and the web of trade-offs that can endanger privacy, individual freedoms and overall security (though security is a complicated concept in itself). This session will not be limited to debating an individual state's role: as a Soviet citizen and a pro-democracy leader in Russia, Garry Kasparov has seen, up close, how governments use and misuse the control of information. Claudio Guarnieri extensively researched and reported human rights violations in the digital realm in many countries, including Iran and Azerbaijan, and even the U.S. The asymmetrical acceleration of information creation and the human ability to process and cope with it are one aspect of the debate. From spam to propaganda to phishing attacks, the huge amount of data we produce and share quicker than ever before is being used against us. Other aspects the debate will tackle are: •       How can we sort through fake news and political propaganda? Where is the balance of corporate management, government regulation and individual empowerment? •       Is technology agnostic? Our increasingly powerful tools can be used to either help or harm the causes of democracy and individual freedom. •       Does maintaining privacy and security without repression or anarchy require a commitment to private, public and corporate engagement? And what does dedication to transparency mean in this context?

How would you react if you discovered that your child – who is often lost in their own thoughts and disconnected from other children – is actually one of the greatest minds of their time? As a young boy, Magnus Carlsen was very different from his peers. Bullied by the other children, he usually sat by himself, lost in thought. But when a strong interest in numbers led him to the game of chess at the age of 5, he quickly started to climb the ranks of the chess world. At 13, he decided that he would become the World Chess Champion. Magnus is now known as the “Mozart of Chess” – combing the skill and intellect of chess with unrivaled originality and instinct. Through an extensive amount of archival footage and home movies, filmmaker Benjamin Ree follows Magnus’s meteoric rise to the top in this unique coming-of-age story. The film invites audiences to not only experience the fascinating world of competitive chess, but also peek into the mind of a modern genius. Director Benjamin Ree joins us to talk about the international culture of chess and the fascinating story of a prodigy with a talent for understanding numbers, patterns and following his remarkable instincts.

My guest today is the Garry Kasparov.  For 20 years he was the World Chess Champion and is widely considered to the greatest chess master of all time. Then in 2005, he retired from chess to become a political activist in his native country of Russia. He has since become the most vocal and high profile critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin. In 2008, he even ran for President against Putin’s hand-picked successor Dimitri Medvedev until being forced out of the election due to rampant corruption and election fraud by pro-Putin forces in Russia. Today Garry Kasparov is in self-imposed exile in New York, where he serves as chairman of the Human Rights Foundation and continues to call for reform in Russia and an end to the corruption and oppression of Vladimir Putin.   He has a new book called WINTER IS COMING: WHY VLADIMIR PUTIN AND THE ENEMIES OF THE FREE WORLD MUST BE STOPPED.  He says Vladimir Putin is no longer just Russia’s problem and he could pose a serious threat to world peace and free countries everywhere. Kasparov says talks about Russia’s rocky path to democratic reform in the 1990’s and the factors that made it easy for Vladimir Putin to quickly begin to roll back freedoms in Russia and consolidate his power. Kasparov says that Putin is a ruthless dictator with disturbing parallels to Adolf Hitler, and he will hold on to power at all costs.  Plus, just wait until you hear what he says Vladimir Putin may do if energy prices plummet.  It’s a wake-up call to the free world with my guest Garry Kasparov.   If you enjoy this episode then you can order Garry Kasparov’s new book WINTER IS COMING: WHY VLADIMIR PUTIN AND THE ENEMIES OF THE FREE WORLD MUST BE STOPPED on Amazon.

During World War Two, Portugal remained neutral. Many of the people who found themselves there had little choice as to where they might live, work and even survive. Among those who had had little choice but to be in Portugal was Alexander Alekhine, the World Chess Champion.Alexander is a man looking for a life away from sitting alone in his hotel room with nothing but a chess board on a table and dinner in his lap. He is looking for inspiration, looking for his muse and ultimately, a way to return to his previous glory...

Is there any serious challenge to the supremacy of Putinism?Picture: Garry Kasparov, Credit: Kirill Kudryavtsev/AFP/Getty Images
