Chapter 394: The decisive battle until dawn

Chapter 394

Cheng Nuo took a look at the matchup table for tomorrow's game. His opponent in the first round was really the robot Alpha Zero.

And the format of this tournament is a knockout round. In other words, if you lose a round, you have to leave immediately.

Cheng Nuo's heart is bitter!

He was just driven to the shelves to participate in a Go competition, not to seek the championship, as long as he got a not bad ranking.

But what was the result: In the first round, I met Alpha Zero, a player who was extremely perverted.

That's the guy who crushed the Alpha Dog, and the Alpha Dog once beat the world's No. 1 Go master.

No matter how confident Cheng Nuo is, he is not arrogant enough to crush the world's masters.

Well, this time I was going to spend three days participating in this Go competition. But now it seems that one day will be enough.

A round of tours, I am afraid it is Cheng Nuo's destined fate.

He turned his head and silently met Jiang Li's gaze. Cheng Nuo smiled bitterly.

Jiang Li stood up and patted Cheng Nuo's shoulder heavily, "Tomorrow, do your best!"

After a few seconds of silence, Cheng Nuo slowly spoke, "I can't guarantee that I will win against Alpha Zero, but I won't lose too badly! As for your plan, you can only wait for next time." ”

"It doesn't matter. Jiang Li didn't have too much sadness on his face, "I've been here for so many years, and I don't care about the past two months." ”

"Tomorrow, come on!"

"Definitely!"

............

There is not much need for Cheng Nuo to prepare before the game.

Cheng Nuo doesn't have much experience in Go matches, and it is nothing compared to the millions of games stored inside Alpha Zero.

In terms of calculation speed, Cheng Nuo can't say which is stronger or weaker compared to Alpha Zero.

In addition to the lack of independent thinking ability, the advantage of machines over humans in Go is simply not too high.

Moreover, no robot is not made by humans.

Therefore, it is completely meaningless to compare the wins and losses of Go with robots.

But this is arranged by the organizing committee of the competition, what else can Cheng Nuo do, he can only go up and do it.

Don't be cowardly, just do it!

What about robots, who says robots can't do it?!

Cheng Nuo, who adhered to such a creed, asked Professor Fresnel for an afternoon off from the office the next day after a busy morning and rushed to the competition site.

The venue was in the largest Go gym in Cambridge, and the match between Cheng Nuo and Alpha Zero was scheduled for the first game of the afternoon.

As the first game of Alpha Zero, a new generation of Alpha Dog, there are naturally many professional Go players and media reporters who come to watch the game.

As the opponent of Alpha Zero's first battle, an unknown amateur Go player, he is just regarded as cannon fodder by everyone.

Perhaps only in the report, mention the tragic situation of this amateur Go player who was abused by Alpha Zero.

The game starts at 2 p.m.

Cheng Nuo arrived half an hour early, and after some inspection, he was taken to a small compartment surrounded by a bunch of long guns and short gun cameras with his player card.

His opponent, Comrade Alpha Zero, is being carefully debugged by several researchers from Deep Blue.

Cheng Nuo glanced at Alpha Zero a few times and found that it was no different from his predecessor Alpha Dog, and he couldn't see any robot form.

Placed there, it's like an oversized host with a big head display.

Seeing that Alpha Zero was still debugging the equipment, a reporter raised the microphone, and the camera was pointed at Cheng Nuo and asked, "Hello, Cheng Nuo, as the opponent of Alpha Zero's first battle, what is your mood?"

Cheng Nuo was silent for a few seconds, and replied leisurely, "My heart has no fluctuations, and I even want to make instant noodles." ”

Reporter: "???"

I didn't have time to eat lunch, I'm hungry!

Reporter: "Then how sure do you think you are against Alpha Zero?"

Cheng Nuo said lightly, "Lu Benwei!"

Reporter: "Uh, I'm sorry, I didn't understand what you meant. ”

Cheng Nuo: "Oh. It's five-five!"

Reporter: "So you think you have a 50% chance of beating Alpha Zero?"

Cheng Nuo: "No. I mean, I'm going to be hammered by Alpha Zero, and I'm going to be hammered to the ground by Alpha Zero!"

Reporter: "......"

The reporter stepped back with interest.

Cheng Nuo looked at the few scientific researchers who were busy before and after, holding his chin in a daze.

Isn't it so troublesome to just debug a few values? Besides, the alpha zero is not a too esoteric program nested inside.

Although the core code of this kind of learning Go robot is confidential to the outside world, in the eyes of insiders, it is just an optimized superposition of several self-learning programs.

"Game on!"

Finally, Alpha Zero was tuned, Cheng Nuo was sitting at the chess table, and sitting opposite was a developer of Alpha Zero, who replaced Alpha Zero and Cheng Nuo in chess and cards.

Cheng Nuo took the lead.

There is no need to hesitate, Cheng Nuo took the lead in occupying the center of the chessboard.

Alpha zero followed, and white landed to the left of Cheng Nuo's black piece.

Bang Da~! Bang Da ~ !

In the first dozen hands, Cheng Nuo fell unhurriedly.

Alpha zero, because the operation speed is faster than Cheng Nuo, only takes one to two seconds for each fall.

Half an hour later......

The war on the chessboard began to heat up.

Every time he fell, not only Cheng Nuo, but even Alpha Zero became longer.

The Alpha Zero algorithm does not calculate the best strategy by predicting the opponent's next few moves, or the last few dozen moves, but builds a value network through something called a "situation evaluator".

Supplemented by a drop selector, after complex calculations, the drop pick with the highest probability of winning is obtained.

In other words, Alpha Zero thinks about how to win, not how to play against the opponent!

Cheng Nuo's current situation is also extremely uncomfortable.

Under the pressure of Alpha Zero, the situation on the field has been very unfavorable to Cheng Nuo.

No matter how he used the small mini Hua Guo Flow, the cosmic flow, it was all dissolved by Alpha Zero with a sharp attitude.

An hour later, Cheng Nuo was completely at a disadvantage in the overall situation.

"Looks like that's the only way to do it!"

Come out, Upanisha-Double Four Tribulation Cycle!

Cheng Nuo said a sentence silently, and it fell with a snap.

There is not much chance of winning, so you can only try to turn this game into a draw. That's still a fight.

Ten hands later, Cheng Nuojin completed the construction of the Double Four Tribulation Cycle.

In the case of a four-tribulation cycle, Alpha Zero may be able to give in a little, but it is two at once, Cheng Nuo is sure that with the algorithm inside Alpha Zero, he will definitely continue to entangle with Cheng Nuo this time.

"Draw!"

Seeing that Cheng Nuo and Alpha Zero had been entangled in these two four-tribulation cycles for more than an hour without any results, the referee decisively called for a draw.

According to the rules of the game, since it is a knockout match, after a draw, it is necessary to play again until the winner is decided.

Cheng Nuo VS Alpha Zero Game 2: Draw!

Game 3: Draw!

Game 4: Draw!

Game 5:

............

The two fought directly from five o'clock in the afternoon to ten o'clock in the evening. The winner is still undecided.

The reporters who were on the side of the video had gone from initial surprise to numbness.

They are now losing their spirits, all they think about is when this game will end, and they really want to go home and sleep!

Here, Cheng Nuotong's eyes were red, and he roared in a low voice, "Come again!"
