I was not being naive, as I said above I was expecting the model to be able to move but not to be good. That is why I created an engine to play against, to see how good/bad it is. My exact entire point was that it would be really surprising that chatgt only knowing chess rules could play at 1400 ELO level. And I did not give a crap about how to play a single game and was not meant to see how smart HN users are but how chatGPT is, but whatever conclusion a human would take without playing a single game (not trying to move the queeen) is what chatgpt should do, right? BTW, I simulated few games of the engine against the engine to see what happened and it does not seem as obvious as you say.
