For anyone interested in neural nets Backgammon makes a fascinating example. Essentially, AI computes the value of each position. Like a dome roof, the entire height could be off by a fraction of a percent, but all that matters is the relative values of the possible next moves. These valuations converge much faster than the overall function.
