Artificial Intelligence System Wins at Poker
Poker isn't like other games artificial intelligence has mastered, such as chess and go. In poker, each player has different information from the others and, thus, a different perspective on the game. This means poker more closely mirrors the kinds of decisions we make in real life but also presents a huge challenge for AI.

We speak with Michael Bowling, who leads the team that designed DeepStack, to learn how.
