Has deepmind done any additional training of AlphaGo since last spring?
The training that AlphaGo underwent between fall of 2015 and the match against Lee Seedol in March 2016 seemed quite effective.
- yohui 10y agoYes. From the press conference: https://www.reddit.com/r/baduk/comments/64hmu2/watch_live_press_conference_of_alphago_vs_ke_jie/dg2d1ti/ https://www.reddit.com/r/baduk/comments/64hmu2/watch_live_pr... > Last year, the AlphaGo that played against Lee Sedol was v18. The Master that achieved 60-0 was v25. Which version will play this time? > Scott Beaumont: The exact version of AlphaGo will have to be introduced by the experts working on the project, but it will be the newest version. Defeating Ke Jie is no easy task, and AlphaGo has been continually improving. Also, we hope to continually improve Go as an art, through the wisdom of the players and AI in cooperation. (Magist/Master was the handle under which AlphaGo played 60 online blitz games last December: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AlphaGo#Unofficial_online_matches_in_late_2016_to_early_2017 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AlphaGo#Unofficial_online_matc... )
- dwaltrip 10y agoVery cool, thanks for the details. I didn't realize the version playing as "master" was 7 versions after than what Lee Seedol faced!
- remus 10y agoAlphaGo played a series of online games under the name 'Master' after the Lee Sedol match, so presumably deepmind are still working on it. Id say it's pretty safe to assume that's going to involve a lot of training.
