He may be best known for his matches against IBM’s supercomputer Deep blue in the late ‘90s. Those games were instrumental in bringing both chess and AI into mainstream consciousness. They also inspired Kasparov to study machine-human interaction in depth.

Moreover, his work with Oxford University’s Future of Humanity Institute resulted in Deep Thinking, Kasparov’s bestselling 2017 book. In it, Kasparov blends science and philosophy to chart a bold vision for the relationship between humans and machines.

Still based in Moscow, Kasparov succeeded Vaclav Havel as chairman of the Human Rights Foundation. Under threat of arrest, Kasparov moved to New York city in 2013. There, he founded the Democracy Renewal Project in 2016, which defends liberal democracy against a global tide of nationalism.
