Individual positions like that could be an interesting thing to test; I’ll likely have some people try out some of those too.
I think the aspect where the deceivers have to tell the truth in many cases to avoid getting caught could make it more realistic, as in the real AI situation the best strategy might be to present a mostly coherent plan with a few fatal flaws.
I agree that knowing when to lie is part of the challenge a deceptive AI will face. However, I would argue that a coherent plan is needed for every move suggestion. In a game of chess, there are typically only a few critical positions, and it is these where a deceptive AI ought to strike. This is similar to the cheating discussions in chess—a top player would only need a hint in a few positions to greatly benefit—the other 90% of moves they can make without assistance.
But by focusing on challenging positions, it could be a more efficient use of the participant’s time. Otherwise, for a whole game you may only have had 3 moves where a deceptive AI actually lied.
