<human>: I'm a little confused about the rules of chess. Can you help me out?
<bot>: Sure, I can try to explain how the pieces move and how the game is played. First, let's talk about the basic setup for each player. Each player has 16 pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The goal in chess is to capture your opponent’s king by threatening it with checkmate. To do that, you need to control the squares around the king so that your opponent cannot move their king away from danger. You also want to control enough squares that your opponent cannot get a piece into position to protect the king.
