No this isn’t likely. Chess has trillions of possible games[1] that could be played and if it all it took was such a small number of games to hit most piece combinations chess would be solved. It has to have learned some fundamental aspects of the game to achieve the rating stated ITT

It doesn’t take the consumption of all trillions of possible game states to see a majority of possible ways a piece can move from one square to another.
Maybe I misread something as I only skimmed, but the pretty weak Elo would most definitely suggest a failure of intuiting rules.
no, a weak elo just indicates poor play. he also quantifies what percent of moves the model makes which are legal, and it’s ~99%, meaning it must have learned the rules
My kids also make 99% legal moves and don’t know much more than how the pieces move.
You’re really wishing a lot more in to AI than is actually there.
