StarCraft player outsmarts artificial intelligence in tournament

A StarCraft player managed to outsmart several artificial intelligence bots in a recent tournament. Song Byung-gu, from South Korea, beat four AI players in the first StarCraft competition to pit real and digital gamers against each other. The multiple victories came at Sejong University in Seoul, which hosts an annual StarCraft AI contest. One of the bots beaten by Song was CherryPi, a software developed by Facebook's AI research team. Song beat all four bots within 27 minutes, with the shortest match lasting just four and a half minutes.
