Google AlphaGo Beats World Champions, 60 to 0 (2016-12)
AlphaGo played 60 games against world's top champions from China, Korea, Japan, on the internet, and won all. Quite intriguing the power of neural networks. The thing with neural networks is, we learn nothing. Can't explain nothing. [see Artificial Neural Network is Nasty]
Of strategic games such as go, there is basically only one best move. “Style” is simply a emergent phenomenon. Having a style means sub-optimal play.
“emergent phenomenon” is kinda wishy-washy concept. because almost everything can be thought of “emergent”.
watching alphago defeats top champions is amazing. It played many moves that'd be considered silly, moves that pro players would never play. It means, human knowledge of go strategy has lots holes.
AlphaGo plays very simple moves. Never flashy, never into fights. Pro players feel like, they never made mistakes, but by-and-by, they just lost.
Beating world's top champions 60 to 0 is an impossible feat. Though, the games are played with 3 times 30 seconds timing. (meaning, each player has 30 seconds to make each move. If you passed time limit, you have another 30 seconds. This is allowed to happen 3 times.) Under fast games, computer have advantage. The pro players cannot properly exercise their strength.
