At least right now, cheating in chess online has not happened at the very highest level of the game. There have been GMs that have been caught cheating but as far as I know never a top 100 player. The ideas in the article seem focuseed on solving a problem that does not yet exist.
On the topic of combined human/engine chess, this is something that does exist https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_chess https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_chess. It hasn't really gotten any serious traction, but I think it would be something interesting to see. I suspect that chess engines are so far advanced now though that humans would add nothing.
- mxwsn 5y agoTangentially related, but I found this article on positions that humans understand better than engines fascinating: https://www.chess.com/article/view/10-positions-chess-engines-just-dont-understand https://www.chess.com/article/view/10-positions-chess-engine... Especially Hikaru's game where he "outsmarted" an engine. At the very least, it shows by proof of existence that humans can augment engines in some corner cases.
