Google's AlphaGo proves superiority over human opponents - The Economic Times

By Paul Mozur HONG KONG: Google computer program called AlphaGo beat the world's best player in the second game. It's all over for humanity - at least in the game of Go. For the second game in a row, a Google computer program called AlphaGo beat the world's best player of what many consider the world's most sophisticated board game. AlphaGo is scheduled to play its human opponent, the 19-year-old Chinese prodigy Ke Jie, one more time on Saturday in the best-of-three contest. But with a score of 2-0 heading into that final game, and earlier victories against other opponents already on the books, AlphaGo has proved its superiority.
