Fraud analysis through powerful AI

Thanks. Maybe I understand better now what you mean.

I would also like it when some automated detector flags games where my opponent uses AI.

But I don’t think a good, fast and cheap cheating detector already exists. If it did exist, we would not be needing to record ourselves on video while playing online EGF tournaments.
That’s one hurdle.

Another hurdle is the cost of analysing all games played on OGS (in realtime).
I read that about 100,000 games are played on OGS per week (in 2019, possibly more nowadays).
Also, the cost of the online compute required to analyse 100,000 games to a good level was estimated at 600 USD by someone on reddit not too long ago.
I know nothing about OGS’ finances, but it may be a bit much to ask OGS to provide free botting detection for all games played on OGS, while that may cost OGS something on the order of 600 USD per week. To my knowledge, OGS isn’t particularly rich.

You understand me well. I’m not saying OGS must do something, it will do it in exams, in all chess sites.
