Kramnik at this point truly believes that if he can’t do something, it is “statistically impossible” and anyone who outperforms him is therefore “cheating”. They guy has lost his marbles completely
This seems like an example of someone who's smartness in one area leads them to believe theyre also brilliant about other things that maybe just maybe they dont have expertise on
@@sheriefelsayad5578ok so give names of people that are fighting cheating?! Who do you think you are to even criticise a former world champion! That's the tragedy of social media. Any fool can afford to criticize the opinion of a world chess champion.
Kramnik's online rating is 3000+. Ben's rating is 2800. How does he say Kramnik is "very bad" at online chess? Also Ben's argument on if they are cheating why arent they winning is stupid. a) I would never cheat to win that would be too suspicious. b) some do win like Hans.
it should be remembered about kramnik that while he's crazy and refuses to take probability math advice from actual statisticians, he IS fighting the good and right fight. and as we can see the prevalence of cheating in physical sports, top people with much more to lose, absolutely 100% use doping rampantly. people who want to win enough will always take the risk, any risk. and chess players are only human, which means we're not any better than olympic skiers, cyclists, UFC fighters, 100m sprinters. so the MOST LIKELY REALITY is cheating is rampant in chess as well. maybe worse than kramnik thinks. and as we know from other sports, people seemingly having integrity means NOTHING regarding their likelihood of cheating. kramnik is clearly delusional in his methods and can't be trusted on any detections, but he's most likely right about the general situation and how bad it is. so two things: while kramnik is crazy, I hate that people take that and conclude he must be wrong, or that we should be laughing at his attempts to find the cheaters. NO! we should be taking his example and doing the same, only better. we need more kramniks, but we need our kramniks to do a better job. this is THE FIGHT that must be encouraged not ridiculed. second thing: once we come up with a trustable method, and we will, and we'll go through historical games to check everyone... and there 100% will be people caught who you always fiercely believed were beyond reproach. people exactly like hikaru, magnus and even kramnik himself. people who you never in your life thought might've cheated. we just don't know who they are, yet, but that's what's gonna happen. so like I said, it has happened in every other sport, and believing us chess players are any different is the dumbest possible baseless attitude we can have on this. Carl Lewis, the biggest boy scout olympic hero in history, was caught cheating in every olympics he took part in. every single one. he just always found legal loopholes to slip the verdict every single time. his support people, with the help of sports organizations, always found a technicality, lapse of procedure or something to claim 'reasonable doubt'. but he did test positive every single time. he was always cheating but smiled and lied and was biblically pissed off at any accusations all the way to retirement. he never admitted it. and that's gonna be the situation with some of our current untouchable heros as well. some of them are cheating right now, have always been, and WHEN they finally get caught it'll destroy your faith in people, you'll be beyond devastated even for years at how you never saw it coming. you might even quit chess for years. that's exactly what's happened in tons of other sports to tons of top pros who always seemed beyond reproach. to not understand this reality is being a fool in front of statistics. we are no different from any other sports. people in our sport don't have an inch more integrity from any other sport, because we're all stuck in the gaussian. we're not a special case.
the problem is, kramnik is actively hurting the anti-cheating case. Because the more he baselessly accuses everyone, the more people start to dismiss ANY cheating accusations. Like the boy who cried "wolf". When 95% of accusations are baseless - people tend to just assume that new accusation is also baseless. The closest thing I can think of is false rape accusations. If there are a lot of proven false rape accusations - people start to dismiss and doubt a LOT on every rape accusation, even if accusation isnt false. And it hurts real rape victims the most. So kramnik might think he is "fighting the good and right fight" - but he makes cheating situation actively worse.
@@trythis610 I think the anti-kramnik lashout is doing that 100x more, which was kinda my point. people are pretending that a large amount of his accusations aren't true just because they don't want to think their favourites could be guilty. where as kramnik has made a point of using exactly same method to everyone, as failed as it might be, regardless of if he knows them or not. I mean if you go back to before hans-scandal even hikaru made much more accusations daily just based on his 'feeling' of his opponents.
@@babstra55 "anti-kramnik lashout" woudn't exist without kramnic being crazy. You cannot blame people for doing the logical thing - doubt the words of such a person.

"Kinda your point" is simply wrong Favourites possibility of being guilty have nothing to do with the cause. Provide good enough evidence - and it doesn't matter who is accused, evidence is evidence. Hans example is also terrible (and proves my point, not yours) - as he is a known cheater. It was confirmed that he cheated online and then he admitted of cheating himself. And his inconsistency and inability to analyze games in post-game interview was only doing things worse for him. He is probably the best example of why cheating situation is so horrible - even with 100%confession he didn't get banned from on-board games somehow. Just getting a slap on a wrist for cheating is insane I am 100% on board with accusations that are fact-based (even if in the end person in question can be found not guilty). But baseless accusations do not help anyone
kramnik's accusations are not baseless, he's basing it to data which he is sharing. it's just that his math is wrong. but he's not making up the accusations out of thin air. where as hans cheating against magnus was based on absolutely no evidence, it's a textbook example of a baseless accusation. yes hans was caught twice before, and yes a lot of people at the time thought he was cheating (including myself). but I don't think anyone serious thinks that anymore as he's constantly shown to be a strong player afterwards. that said, the reason I brought hans up was NOT him cheating, but the moment in TIME when hikaru stopped casually accusing people who played well against him, BECAUSE after hans sued him hikaru understood you can't just throw accusations around without consequences. BEFORE that hikaru was much more prolific accuser of people than kramnik with absolutely no evidence whatsoever, but for some reason nobody has a problem with that.
@babstra55 I am not talking about kramnik's initial accusations of hikaru, I actually appreciate them and following investigation. I however do not appresiate his inability to accept he was wrong and his following accusation of dozens of pro players not based on moves, but based on for example "this guy is too young for his rating, in my days noone that young was even close to that level". Statistics can be initial suspicion, but you need to provide specific moves you think your opponent is using engine. So every time he doesn't provide specific move but accuses it is baseless. Cheating against magnus was based (excluding already floating suspicions) on the fact that magnus made unusual opening and hans instantly countered it, and following inability of hans to analize the game. It is not baseless, you seem to havе nо ideа what "baseless accusation" means. Accusing someone not based on chess move (like kramnik does to everyone) is baseless accusation, accusing someone based on chess move (like magnus did with hans) is not baseless. Magnus was wrong, but thats it hikaru was not even close to kramnik in terms of accusing people. He did a lot of accusations in public games (which i think is fair, cheating there is out of hands) - but he never accused dozens of pro players, and never claimed after tournament loss that everybody in tournament are cheating. And hikaru usually did accusation based on specific moves, not general "he is playing too good but he cant be that good" You are comparing public games accusation using specific moves with pro and tournament accusations that are done without any specific moves claims, and they are in a different realm

The arguments Ben Finegold represents are the following: "Kramnik is cherry-picking his stats." That argument is not right; Kramnik showed a great representation with many games involved. The second argument from Finegold is: "Kramnik takes things to be important when they are not." So this means it's not important that someone else is cheating? Or does it mean basing the opinion that someone is cheating on statistical overperformance is not important? Then, how else would you know someone was cheating? This means the second argument by Benfinegold is also wrong. Then the insults vs. Kramnik. Saying he is a bad online blitz player when Ben Finegold is ranked below him is just self-dissing. Overall, a very bad video and take on the situation. Ben Finegold: "Everything that Kramnik says is irrelevant."

No arguments whatsoever. Cherry-picking I think this guy does not even understand what it means. Kramnik is very detailed. If you don’t agree fight him with arguments. But I guess Ben needs klicks for his UA-cam channel
Many people don't understand what Kramnik says. I for example don't understand Kramnik. He tries to proove the existence of something without having a reference how the nonexistence would look like. There is no control group. It doesn't matter how "very detailed" his calculation of "Pi" is, if he doesn't understand that he is not calculating Pi but something else. For example if there is no cheating, then his calculations are wrong. If there is cheating, then whatever he does is also wrong because he has no idea how a complete non cheating data set would look like.
