Why Is chess.com Hikaru-bot Not Rated The Highest?

Sort:

GM @Hikaru is one of the best chess players in the world and also one of the top "faces" of chess.com, so why is Hikaru-bot rated 2750 while Vishy-bot and Kramnik-bot rated 2800?

Were these ratings taken from when GM @Hikaru was lower rated, or is this slight drop in rating to ability just to give us all a smidge more of a chance at winning?

p.s. I haven't even attempted these bots yet, but just found it somewhat strange...

Wasn't Vishy like 2800+ rated (Hikaru too but...) and former WC... maybe cuz Vishy OTB strong for long time etc and WC

I think Hikaru's current OTB is n the mid 2700’s so it would make sense. Now Vishy and Vlad would make more sense to be 2800 if the bits are supposed to be them in there peak

Well, Maybe Its because both vishy and kramnik were former world champions, while hikaru hasn't been a former champion

but maybe im wrong lol idrk

and yeah @ricorat @champofthecommiecamp

Yeah, by a little:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viswanathan_Anand peak rating as of now: 2817

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Kramnik peak rating as of now: 2817

whoa, they both have identical peak ratings? pog

Peak Ratings FIDE

FOUND THE REASON

Vishy and Kramniks OTB peak is 2817... Hikarus peak is 2816!

ChampoftheBepoCamp

1.5-3.5 seems pretty good though lel haha... I mean the real hikaru was having a bad day lel

ChampoftheBepoCamp

Wait I remember that was like the LIVE bots time... I already got mine Man vs Machine Achievement lel

I believe that those numbers refer to their OTB rating, where Naka isn't quiiiiite as high as the other two.

For their time period I would say that Vishy and Kramnik were relatively better
