A major subplot of the recent TV show "Terminator: The Sarah Connor
Chronicles" deals with chess - specifically, someone producing an
advanced chess-playing program (named "The Turk" after the famous 18th
century automaton) that may wind up becoming the world-destroying AI
"Skynet". One episode shows it playing in a tournament against other
programs. I don't know how authentic the chess was, though.
