AlphaGo

AlphaGo by Greg Kohs

Welcome to the Google DeepMind Challenge

Go is the world’s oldest continuously played board game. It’s extremely simple and extremely abstract, with the number of possible configurations on the board higher than the number of atoms in the universe.

Google DeepMind’s AlphaGo programme has found a way to play, and millions of people around the world watched as legendary Go master Lee Sedol took on the AI challenger.

Can Sedol find AlphaGo’s weakness? What insights can AI give us about a 3000-year-old game, and what can it teach us about humanity? AlphaGo will make you consider intelligence – both human and artificial – with a fresh sense of awe.
