It’s exceedingly rare, though. There’s a big difference between accidentally falling to notice a move that is illegal in a complicated situation, and playing a move that may or may not be illegal just because it sounds kinda “chessy”, which is pretty much what LLMs do.

yes but LLM illegal moves often are not chessy at all. A chessy illegal move for instance would be trying to move a rook when you don't notice that it's between your king and an attacking bishop. LLMs would often happily play Ba4 when there's no bishop anywhere near a square from where it could reach that square, or even no bishop at all. That's not chessy, that's just weird.

I have to admit it's been a while since I played chatgpt so maybe it improved.
