    I think it’s neat that it was supposedly the hardest board game to get AI to understand and play effectively.

      It wasn’t until 2015 that the top Go player lost to an Ai while chess lost in 1997. It’s wild how big that gap is when you think about how much tech had to improve to make it possible.

        And didn’t people still find holes in the Go AI’s algorithm and proceed to dunk on it afterward?

          It’s a bit complicated to understand what an “algorithm” is in case of a neural network. Besides, I haven’t heard of recent human wins over an AI in Go, can you point me to read about it?

          Iirc someone figured out that if you didn’t make it obvious that you were encircling the AI, it wouldn’t take any preventative measures.
