当AI算得更远,我们为什么还要下棋?

感谢《联合早报》关注新加坡象棋,以及正在成长的新一代棋手。

AI可以算得更快、更远,但象棋从来不只是寻找“最佳的一步”。它教会年轻人独立思考、面对胜负、尊重对手,也培养他们在不确定中作出决定的勇气。

这也是新加坡象棋总会坚持推动青少年发展的原因。我们希望让更多年轻人接触象棋,从校园走向赛场,从本地走向国际,也让这项文化与智慧,一代接一代传承下去。

今年11月,我们期待年轻棋手在新加坡举行的2026年世界象棋系列赛上,与来自世界各地的棋手切磋交流!

When AI Can Calculate Further, Why Do We Still Play Xiangqi?

Thank you to Lianhe Zaobao for shining a spotlight on Xiangqi in Singapore and on the next generation of young players.

AI can calculate faster and further, but Xiangqi has never been just about finding the “best move”. It teaches our young players to think independently, face both victory and defeat, respect their opponents, and have the courage to make decisions amid uncertainty.

This is why the Singapore Xiangqi General Association remains committed to youth development. We hope to introduce Xiangqi to more young people, provide pathways from schools to competitions and from the local to the international stage, and pass on the culture and wisdom of Xiangqi from one generation to the next.

This November, we look forward to seeing our young players compete and learn alongside players from around the world at the 2026 World Xiangqi Tournament Series in Singapore!
