Defeated Go grandmaster wants a rematch against computer - Telegraph
The holder of 18 international Go titles and a ninth-dan player, Mr Lee became a professional player at the age of 12 and had confidently predicted before the match-up that he would win all five games. In a worst-case scenario, he said, he feared losing one game to AlphaGo. Mr Lee said he has been playing Go - or "baduk", as it is known in Korea - for such a long time that he may have become a little jaded. But the defeat has served to rekindle the old enthusiasm, he said. Immediately after Mr Lee's defeat in the final game, the Korea Baduk Association asked Demis Hassabis, the CEO of AlphaGo designer Google DeepMind, for a rematch.
