Grandmaster chess players are frequently the youngest titled players, having attained the title at a very young age. Abhimanyu Mishra, who became the youngest Grandmaster in 2021 at the age of 12 years, 4 months, and 25 days, currently holds the record. It is also possible to obtain titles such as FM or IM sooner.

thanks for chatgpt but wrong prompt

Yeah, often when chatGPT fails this horribly, it's mostly the fault of the guy who gave the wrong question. Out of sheer laziness.
