Chapter Fifty-Nine: You Come and Go

Previous Chapter

Google, as the world's top Internet company, will certainly not be idle and bored to let artificial intelligence abuse chess players. The fundamental reason is nothing more than wanting to gain fame and fortune and establish the company's authority in the field of artificial intelligence.

Whether it is an East or a West, there is a basic consensus: Go is the most complex and beautiful game ever invented. It's not that there are more moves in Go than in chess, but the concepts of the two are different.

To put it simply, the purpose of chess (Chinese chess) is to kill the king, and the more you play, the fewer you play; The purpose of Go is to "enclose the land", the more pieces are played, and the one with more land wins. In technical terms, chess moves are easier to evaluate by functions, while Go moves are relatively abstract and difficult for computers to calculate. In addition, Go also has tactical-strategic techniques such as tesuji, robbery, and abandonment.

Therefore, Emmanuel Lasker, the second world chess champion in the history of chess, commented on chess and Go: "Chess is a game that is limited to this world, and Go is a little bit like it was born from the earth." If one day, we find that there is an extraterrestrial civilization that plays the same game as us, it must be Go, and there will be no doubt. ”

It is also likely that it is for this reason that Go has always been considered the "last bastion" of human intelligence against computers.

Whether it is the previous Alpha Dog or the upgraded Master, it is not that they can only play Go, but they just want to test the limits of artificial intelligence through Go games, so as to facilitate subsequent research and development and upgrades.

Dr. Huang Shijie is very satisfied with the results of Master's experiment, believing that it has initially possessed the ability to think independently, which is also based on Master's 60-game winning streak.

Since the purpose is to set up the company's artificial intelligence signboard, when someone challenges it, it is natural that it will not refuse.

In the live broadcast room, the host said in a high-spirited tone:

"I just received the news that Master accepted an appointment from ONE, and the game will be broadcast live for everyone later."

"Here I want to ask Ke Jie, how much do you know about One?"

Ke Jie looked confused: "I haven't heard of anyone in the chess world who has used this nickname, and he has won more than 50 consecutive games, and he is almost tied with the master." ”

"What do you mean......"

Ke Jie nodded: "Combined with Master's previous performance, I guess ONE should also be an artificial intelligence." ”

The host continued: "It would be interesting if one was also an artificial intelligence, and this may be the first game of Go brought by two artificial intelligences." ”

Yicheng.com has hundreds of thousands of viewers, and the major broadcast sites add up to millions. Originally, I saw the defeat of the chess master, and I wanted to sigh on social networking sites, but who knew that the peak turned around, and someone stood up to challenge the master.

In the unusually developed social network, many viewers who watched the live broadcast posted Moments and Weibo, and soon the news of the AI Go game was parachuted. This also made many viewers who did not know Go pour into the live broadcast website, causing the number of viewers to rise sharply.

"Didn't Ke Jie just say that one could also be artificial intelligence?"

"Google's Alpha Dog has abused many masters before, and Master is very much like an upgraded version of Alpha Dog, but I don't know which company ONE is from."

"The world's superior artificial intelligence technology is Microsoft, Facebook, Amazon and other big companies."

"Who said that domestic BAT is also developing artificial intelligence, maybe they can't get used to the arrogance of the master."

β€œBAT? They know that monopoly makes money, and they also know how to develop technology? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Regardless of the comments on the barrage, the game between Master and ONE soon began.

The host of Yicheng explained the game setup to the audience, and then began to analyze the game between the two people.

"Master's style of play has not changed from before, he is calm and fast, and he is quite sharp. In comparison, ONE has a slower reaction speed and a soft style. ”

There are too many doorways and routines in Go, so the player's personality and style can be reversed from the moves and layout. Master's style of chess is like that of a young master, full of pride. One thinks that the master who has been precipitated for a long time is as plain as water and can cope with it easily.

Chess style is just a characteristic of a chess player, and it cannot determine the outcome of a chess game. Just because the game is set in rapid chess, if the style of chess is sharp, it is very easy to bring great pressure to the opponent.

"The master is leading by half an eye for the time being, but the situation is very anxious, and the outcome is difficult to predict." The host then turned to Ke Jie and asked, "Who do you think is likely to win?" ”

"The master's layout is well-thought-out, and there are no mistakes at all so far." Ke Jie said with some frustration.

For a professional chess player, when the whole chess world loses to the master, his heart is really heavy.

However, now that it is being broadcast, Ke Jie is not easy to show his inner thoughts, so he has to patiently continue to analyze the chess game: "ONE just tried to play a hand of interference, but the master didn't pay attention to it, which is why ONE is half a goal behind." ”

"The only game Lee Sedol has won before has relied on interference, and Alpha Dog's team will definitely upgrade accordingly. If Master is really an upgraded version of Alpha Dog, it will not make the same mistake again. ”

Chess is about taking one step and looking at three moves, while Go places great emphasis on the overall situation. When a player drops the first disc, he must know which goal he should be heading for.

When artificial intelligence is falling, there will actually be countless kinds of simulations, and no matter where the opponent is, it will have corresponding countermeasures. The emergence of interference chess is a reflection of human ingenuity and foresight, and if the fall exceeds the prediction and algorithm logic of artificial intelligence, then the program will collapse, and the next thing will be a lot of stinky chess.

After Lee Sedol was 3:0 by the Alpha Dog, the 87 hands in the fourth game used such a strategy, and the Alpha Dog could not be deduced normally, and Lee Sedol won a rare victory.

Seeing that his routine was recognized by the master, one didn't seem to be impatient, and he was not in a hurry to make a move, although he was slower than the master, but he was already adapted to the master's chess move.

The host had to sigh: "At the beginning, ONE was still a little behind, but his state is getting better and better, and the backward half eye can catch up with one or two moves." ”

Go is not only a game of brain power and strategy, but also a game of physical strength. In a game that lasts for two or three hours, one's energy will be exhausted in the middle and late stages, resulting in poor concentration and easy mistakes.

Master and one have placed more than 100 hands, you come and go, and no one has declined. Master is as strong as ever, and one is still so indifferent and unhurried.
