I guess this is true in more ways than one. Kasparov famously accused IBM of cheating during the match, by spying on his preparation (edit: though the main cheating accusation was live human intervention during the games, on top of IBM downplaying the heavy human involvement behind the AI, which also mirrors this situation)

- protocolture 10d agoIf you read his account of things, its very much that if they didnt cheat, they gave themselves every opportunity to cheat. But above all that there was a bunch of chess protocol they failed to observe in that match, like providing seats for Kasparovs team and rooms for them to prep in. Even if they didnt have a big room full of chess notables definitely not refining the output, he was personally getting pushed around on a few fronts which unnerved him. If they had given him a few rematches I think they could have confirmed the win, but they refused which is super sus.
- DiogenesKynikos 10d agoDeep Blue beat Kasparov fair and square. Kasparov was a bit of a bad sport at the end of the match, though the reasons are understandable. He was at the top of the human chess world. He wasn't used to losing, and he took it badly.
