Could makers of videos learn to stop using mechanical voices. It's cheap and shoddy and disrespectful of the viewer. The video maker takes a game played by others, a commentary that may or may not be his, and feeds it into a text to voice converted. How cheap. And the video that resukts from it is rubbish.
Exactly. I turned it off right away, and came here to moan about it. Poor taste is creeping into online chess analysis . It’s up to us to hold fast and remember that this has become a business for many people. Where we give our views, our time and our attention makes or breaks a site. This one is broken intrinsically. So say I.
"Shoddy and disrespectful to the viewer?" Really? You're suggesting it's incumbent on those making videos for your pleasure that they adhere to your preferences? Disrespectful indeed.
@jimmalmstrom6593 it has nothing to do with my preferences. The maker of the video is lazy and does not even seem to realize that text to speech has no way of knowing about inflection or where to pause. Once they put it "out there" it is subject to the sanction of criticism. If we can praise good videos, it follows that we can criticise bad ones. And this one is bad.
You take too much for granted, the maker of the video may not have a good speaking voice, stutter or have a heavy accent. If you dislike the maker's content this much there is always the option to switch to another channel.

@@aaronbarlow4376 Two hours 30 minutes for 40 moves - One hour for the next 20 moves - 45 minutes Sudden Death using the Fischer Time Clock is real chess. Speed, blitz etc. is chess junk food for those with short attention spans.

Believe it or not I actually like the AI voice and straightforward commentary. I've gotten tired of Epic chess and Gotham chess with their boring memes and try-too-hard jokes.
@@harrygregg9551 Sure, I've heard of Agadmator, but I got tired of him too. I like Chessbrahs, and also Daniel Naroditsky - these are the ones I watch the most.

Before even watching this video, I need to say that I've never studied moves in particular because creating specific moves seemed useless if the other guy was aware of what you were trying to do! I always played a reactionary game without having a clue as to the outcome and was half-assed at it in my day. I played for attrition, but always paid attention to the risks down the road. I didn't win always, but I was the best player in my unit! It seems to me that standing on the shoulders of giants is not really fairly in a 'sport' like one. I personally think that if I took it seriously enough, I could whip anyone without a lesson! Of course, that's me and I'm mildly drunk! ;-) I can easily tell you this! Fischer would have never rattled me in Iceland! I might have lost, but not because of his stupid shenanigans!
Which pawn, which pawn, and which pawn again? Chess is hard enough without trying to decipher which pieces the commentary is supposedly talking about. Crap! Crap, and utter crap! And I'm talking about this video.
Comrade Tal, plese stop bullying our world champion!
I Missed this match! I know only that Tal won against Kasparow some only days before his Death, Talj was Genius from Riga, the magiciam from Riga
Tal took his smart opponent on a walk into a strange dark forest, soon his opponent was lost.
The raw calculator vs the intuitive magician
As Tal himself once said : "You must take your opponent into a deep dark forest where 2+2=5"
Very deep.
Robo voices are quite annoying.
Yeah, I can't watch it. :\ Unfortunate, I dig the content.
Same
I muted.
not only queen sacrifice but also checkmate with a pawn
"There are sacrifices, and there are mines!" GM M. Tal.
Tal is truly a legend one of the all time greats
Amazing game by Tal
You're a piece up against Tal means you are finished! BruTAL.
This droning 'AI' voice can make even a Tal game boring. Quite an achievement. I guess.
Tal is the natural genius!!!
The Magician from Riga - Mikail Tal
If you go to the trouble of using TTS for the audio, why not correct the text with an LLM first?
"The winner is the one that makes the second to the last mistake."
S. Tartakover.
tal was genius, such a blade thinker
Yup, can't finish this with the robot narration.
Me, neither. When I see a new chess site, I automatically subscribe, but I stopped listening to the video and unsubbed after the 4 minutes of torture.
not just the TTS 'narration' but the ridiculous grammar. Eg. "resulted _to._ " And its the same over and over again.
Agreed this is garbage. Enough down votes maybe will banish it
Tough fight. Good analysis. Voice?
A little less conversation and more action
Thanks for the comments. We don't need an A.I. though, it comes across as too cold and robotic.
GO CRAMLING!!
is this voice AI? I couldn't finish the video
Are you sure this was played in 1978. Was it not in 1980 81, where kasparov won 6 games tal 2 and remaining draws. Some one need to verify this.
its a blitzgame!
@@henriksylvestolsen4885 So what, the question asked was when the game was played.
Kasparov vs who in what year and what tournament?
Tal, genius!

Very playful!!!
Mikhails Tals rocks...^^
I never understand Tal. He is a magician.
A chess GM in fact.
This video should be half long
Just increase the playback speed.
Awful AI voice. Feeling tricked into watching because of the click-bait title. Awful.
Who was winning between two ultimate genius?
The piece set looks fugly
This is a joke, bad comments and no video of the event.
It's always disappointing when a picture of two players at the chessboard is shown, but no live action is shown. A form of clickbait i suppose.
He lost me at "blitz". *Blitz* is not chess.
Of course it is. It's fast time control chess. At least it's not bullet, which is just chaos.

@@Bob31415blitz games do help if you keep in mind endgame scenarios in classical chess.
all the what ifing and lack of flow in what happened ruins the video.
Could Tal smoke during the game?
@mahendrakonsam4473 to quote the old Tartakower joke: "He looks as if he wants to [smoke] and as Capablanca said, 'the threat is greater than its execution.' "
Smoking is now a thing of the past. It was so common them days, you would be sick if you didn't smoke!! How on earth could they see the board?
Picture of Bobby Fisher practicing in a swimming pool with his sparring partner blowing cigarette smoke in his face comes to mind.
Crappiest commentary ever
Its an AI commentary
So confusing
Missed 15. Nd5!!
You do stupid scenarios you machine.. Let us see what they've done...
Gruesome English - interesting game though
The English resulted 'to' me quitting halfway through.
"Resulting to"???
Great game but I feel asleep listening to the monotonous, droning AI voice. Oh well, there are other chess sites to view.
Talking too much, matey. Just show the game.
May His Saucy Noodliness, The Flying Spaghetti Monster bless you too.
Very hissy microphone. Get it sorted.
The microphone very hissy?... Nope!... Some people are too sissy!
cigarette?...
You talk too much

Never heard of agmatatdor?

@@modolief Daniel Naroditsky and Chessbrah rule!
Now come on, no matter how many times your hear stocksquid, stockbarnacle and prawn to sea ships it just never gets old
Too bad he smoked to much nothing cool whit that .. He could surely have been a more skilled player without the cig ....
You sound stupid
You sound very young and inexperienced. Just about every one smoked at the time.
smoking is not good
but being overweight with diabetes and coronary heart disease
are the real killers
And mind you, we start out by saying that we are not going to go into a lot of blather. And mind you, that is what we subsequently do. And after the second, 'And mind you,' I stopped watching.

kasparov siempre tuvo cara de viejo
To much talking!
'Too'. And he's describing what was happening for fans who may not be aware of the nuances.

I'm really sorry. It has no effect on me.😊
use standard grafic, that can no one read there play chess
