I wonder if playing Go on a much larger board (e.g. 37 x 37) would limit the ability of AlphaGo to explore branching significantly to tip the advantage back to humans. I'm not sure if A.I. is limited by branching sizes. And would human intuition of strategy on a 19 x 19 board map easily to the strategy of a 37 x 37 board? After all, Go is still Go no matter what size the board, whereas chess can only be called chess when played on the 8 x 8 board.

- Florin_Andrei 9y agoBoard size would hamper old brute force algorithms. Modern Go AI also has "intuitive" components just like we do (large neural networks trained to immediately provide a heat map of what should be the next best move). That NN is not limited by board size. BTW, even when playing by "intuition" alone (no tree search), AlphaGo is still incredibly strong. It would still beat most amateur players that way.
