Is Magnus Carlsen still the chess king?

With all these new players coming, Alireza, Gukesh, Abdusatorov, Praggnanda, is Carlsen still the best chess player like he used to be?

He is still the best player on the planet. Maybe Gukesh will improve and surpass him one day.

EDIT : Gukesh just read that :

Yes Carlsen is today's chess king. But the GOAT is Kasparov who holds the record of 21 years world's number one. Ten year unbeaten streak on his peak.

@Move_In_Silence_2024. Chat gpt disagrees, but it is sometimes wrong. In this case I think it is right.

"Emanuel Lasker was the World Chess Champion for 27 years, from 1894 to 1921. During this time, he was widely regarded as the world's top player, holding the longest reign as World Chess Champion in history."

Lasker no ten year unbeaten streak. Like Carlsen gets beaten from time to time.

Kasparov against chess legends opposition. I can't imagine how strong he was.

Carlsen was also unbeaten 125 classical games in this computer era. Not everyone's cup of tea

@FQT lol I just said that Kasparov unbeaten streak was 10 years.

@FQT 125 classical games that's very few if goat records is the concern.
