What comparison are you even making here? I know that Deep Blue and Deep Mind are different. There is 25 years (edit: sorry, 20 years) between them! Deep Blue is not deep learning. Did the word "deep", used in two unrelated ways, confuse you? What I am saying is that I know how deep learning works, actual deep learning of the present, and it does not involve "programming itself". You are trying to tell me that it must be programming itself, because a press release said so, and press releases would never lie or exaggerate. Based on the current state of AI, this is very improbable. You should focus less on trying to "prove" things with press releases. I made the comparison to Deep Blue because there is little mystique around it now, and because IBM was even reasonably responsible about avoiding AI hype in their press at the time.
