# AI-Powered Chessboard Kits Daniel Leibovich Develops GoChess, a Backlit Autonomous Chessboard By Amy Duong | Published 2023-05-26 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gochess References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2023/05/25/watch-this-ai-powered-chessboard-with-autonomously-moving-pieces-in-action/) & [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1928372437/gochess-ai-robotic-smart-chess-board-with-coaching-lights?ref=1k1f3o)  Daniel Leibovich introduces [GoChess](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robotic-chess-board), which is a chessboard that is powered by [AI technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/genchess) and has a backlit checkered surface design. This way, it gives players color-coded move recommendations during play. It also has autonomously moving pieces and the option for players to play against another person, with people online who can remotely move the chess pieces, or against an AI. Additionally, as a playful touch, the magnets that are incorporated into the chessboard are able to make the king fall over if a checkmate takes place. GoChess integrates elements of robotics into the design as well -- it also has classic black plastic or wood variants that feature the 8 x 8 checkered surface with 32 chess pieces.
