Netflix Atlas-movie

Has anybody already seen the new Netflix Atlas-movie?

There is an episode in it when the main-character plays chess with an AI-programme.

I also think that those neurolinks (brain computer interfaces) which are now getting developed, can be an existential threat to chess. See also www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SrpYZum4Nk
Yesterday, I have watched that movie. I think, the A.I is gonna take everything from human without their knowledge.
A.I was good when it was controlled by humans but now it's opposite.
I am surprised that she is able to win the game against A.I, because in real life it's not that easy.

Neural-ink is not good for human, as we don't know the consequence.
At the end of the movie we see that Jennifer got a lot of information while she was a child from her AI half-brother. She was jealous and therefore made the error to reverse the neurolink. It could explain why Jennifer won always at chess or she just played against a handicapped program.

Anyway in correspondence chess we see that humans aren't able anymore to add knowledge to AI. In fact humans will by interfering in most cases just decrease the playing-strength of AI. So that AI + human is better than AI and human separately is something I don't buy from the movie. Anyway I enjoyed the movie.
Idk if you understood the chess scene but the ai check’s atlas but she responds to the check with a queen takes knight checkmate , I mean how dumb is that director they invest millions into the movie yet they don’t know a simple chess rule.

I couldn't see the exact position in the movie but it is possible to counter a check with a mate. See for examples page 31 and further in the document http://problem64.beda.cz/silo/koldijk_nanning_themaboek_1948.pdf
