Magnus Carlsen: Greatest Chess Player of All Time | Lex Fridman Podcast #315
Magnus Carlsen is the highest-rated chess player in history and widely considered to be the greatest chess player of all time. Quick note from Lex: The camera on Magnus died 20 minutes in. Most folks still just listen to audio-only version, but here on YouTube, we did our best to still make it interesting to watch & listen by adding image overlays. I mess things up sometimes, like in this case, and it hits me hard when I do. But I’m always working hard to improve. I hope you understand. Thank you for your patience and support along the way. I love you all.
