What I find interesting about this case are the implications around using what I would call "cognitive augmentation" devices. I can't help to compare this situation with the revolution that's happening with art and ai.
I suspect the organizers of Chess.com are at the beginning of a cat and mouse game that will produce more sophisticated detection algorithms, which in turn will help develop more sophisticated chess engines.
I bet that for lovers of chess, who want to continue to enjoy their passion, this is a critical problem to figure out.
However, can we expect that in games, sports, arts, humans will continue to compete with each other without any forms of artificial aid? Or should we instead explore now what augmenting human's cognition means for our culture? Starting now might be the only way to creating a framework to ensure success (however we want to define it) in the long run.
