Can anyone shed light on the significance? AlphaGo already beat a top human quite decisively a few month ago. How is this different?
- RubenSandwich 9y agoThis is different because while AlphaGo did beat Lee Sedol a while ago. Lee was ranked 2nd in the world for Go. Ke Jie, AlphaGo's current opponent, is ranked 1st in the world.
- Houshalter 9y agoHe's also had more time and data to try develop anti-AI tactics and prepare against AlphaGo's strategy. While Sedol mostly went in blind.
- alanfalcon 9y agoAt the time there wasn't much expectation in the Go community that an AI could really compete at the top level, either. Everything is different now.
- olegkikin 9y agoLee Sedol was not the top human, he was #4 when that happened, and now he's #7. Ke Jie was, and still is #1. https://www.goratings.org/en/ https://www.goratings.org/en/
