DeepMind AI Dominates Against Top StarCraft 2 Pros

There is the popular saying, "Practice makes perfect". The principle behind it is that the more you work on something, in theory you should get better at it. This principle was put to the test when Google's DeepMind AI trained to beat some of the world's top StarCraft 2 pros, which they successfully did by winning 10-1. The games were played against StarCraft 2 pros TLO and MaNa, where each pro played five games against the AI. We had previously heard that DeepMind wanted to test their AI by playing against StarCraft 2 pros, and these results seem to prove that the AI has what it takes. However as noted by Engadget, DeepMind did not have the benefits you might expect from AI.
