Probably savant syndrome at some degree. The game against Kasparov was hilarious. Amazing kid.

#2 Not infinite. But 10 times the Shannon number is as near as it gets.

comparison - so your job is a dispatch and quick-response is critical, and there are vectorized areas to be covered (firesquads); or realtime hammer-like clutch to secure the bounty, arrows on motobikes; or even fully-fledged armored squad. yup, there's a reason missions are framed and levelled upon mere blackhawks and tigers squads, or calling in hercules and aiwacs.

If i could do a little bit of training I could beat at the same time even the best 8 chess players in the world at least at 50% win rate. (pss . . I would do the moves of the first 4 chess players to other 4, dont tell anyone)

How the hell do you compare Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to someone that just plays a chess game. One guy composed 600 works of art while the other models on the weekend. Might as well call him the Micheal Jackson of Chess if that even makes any sense in the least XD

This would have been a better piece of reportage if a chess-playing journalist had been assigned to it. Blindfold and simul chess isn't as difficult as it looks, to someone who plays at club level.
#13 compare Bobby Fischer: "I like the moment when I break a man's ego" and "Chess is war over the board. The object is to crush the opponent's mind".

The title is an antonym. A synonym would be calling him "The Justin Bieber of Chess" BOOYAH!
