Today's news first.

(1) Se Young Lee and Jee Heun Kahng, Google AI Program Wins Third Straight Match to Take Go Series. Reuters, Mar 12, 2016.

(2) The following is anews report after AlphabetGo won the first round.

Choe Sang-Hun and John Markoff, Machine Masters Man in Complex Game of Go. New York Times, Mar 10, 2016 (front page).
www.nytimes.com/2016/03/10/world ... ago-lee-se-dol.html

Quote:

(a) opponents: "The match — between Google DeepMind's AlphaGo and the South Korean Go master Lee Se-dol * * * Demis Hassabis, the founder and chief executive of Google's artificial intelligence team DeepMind, the creator of AlphaGo

(b) "To researchers who have been using games as platforms for testing artificial intelligence, Go has remained the great challenge since the IBM-developed supercomputer Deep Blue beat the world chess champion Garry Kasparov in 1997.

" 'Really, the only game left after chess is Go,' Mr Hassabis said on Wednesday [Mar 9].

(c) "Google offered Mr Lee $1 million if he wins the best-of-five series.

Mr Hassabis said AlphaGo did not try to consider all the possible moves in a match, as a traditional artificial intelligence machine like Deep Blue does. Rather, it narrows its options based on what it has learned from millions of matches played against itself and in 100,000 Go games available online.

"Mr Hassabis said that a central advantage of AlphaGo was that 'it will never get tired, and it will not get intimidated either.'

My comment:
(a) There is no need to read the rest of the NYT report.
(b) Go 碁 is Japanese, shortened from 囲碁 (pronunciation: igo).
