The man-machine war officially begins today. On May 23, Ke Jie, the world's number one Chinese chess player, will launch a man-machine war against alphago artificial intelligence in go. The first game of the three games will be held at 10:30 in Zhejiang. Ke Jie is a professional Chinese go player, ranking first in the world. Can human beings defeat machines?
Before that, Google held a conference in China's Chess Academy, announcing that it would host a five-day go summit in Wuzhen, China, from May 23 to 27. It is reported that Ke Jie's appearance fee is $300000, and the winner will receive a bonus of $1.5 million.
Last year, South Korean professional chess player Li Shishi played with alphago, adopting the five game three win system, and finally alphago won 4-1. This year, Kejie and alphago changed the rules and only played three games. Alphago played with Ke Jie in three games on May 23, 25 and 27, respectively.
In addition to the three matches alphago and Ke Jie will have, there will be match matches and team matches at the summit. In the match match, the two players will form teams with alphago respectively. In addition to understanding alphago's style, the challenge players should cooperate with alphago. In the group game, five top Chinese professional players will form a battle group to fight against alphago with collective wisdom.
There are several suspense about this go man-machine dialogue. Whether human first COE Jie can win or even only win the next game is undoubtedly the biggest point of view. In addition, can Ke Jie find alphago's' bug '? What is the reason for alphago's great progress in chess? Does alphago really have no human chess manual? Is the League war really more conducive to this battle? And other questions will be answered today.
Human winning rate is almost zero? Insiders: it's hard for Ke Jie to win a game
Before the man-machine war, Ke Jie was 8-4 in the official competition, losing to Guo Wenchao, Zhao Chenyu, Tang Weixing and Tan Xiao. In the first new Olympic cup, COE Jie reached the final.
Look at Ke Jie's recent loss of four chess sets, three of which were lost in the go League. Ke Jie has performed the miracle of winning 18 consecutive games in the Bundesliga in 2014. From the recent performance of COE Jie, he is conscious of using the Bundesliga League to find a way to deal with alphago. For example, in the new Olympic cup, in the second set match between Ke Jie and Li Zhe, the first hand made a point of 33 moves again.
However, for this war, it is generally believed that Ke Jie, as the most powerful chess player in the world, can't take this ten million bonus. Including gulee, many insiders believe that it is a small probability event that Ke Jie can win a set.
For this matter, Li Kaifu commented that the victory rate of the contest against humanity is almost zero. Li Kaifu said that the man-machine war between alphago and Li Shishi is the first one, and there may be some suspense, but now the evolved man-machine war between alphago and Ke Jie no longer has any other possibility. Li Kaifu pointed out that alphago and Ke Jie's competition is not meaningless, but has lost its focus on scientific value. He called that since alphago and master Leng Pu have made the "invincible" of machines in the field of games no longer have suspense, it is better to devote more energy to the business application level of artificial intelligence.
Ke Jie: going all out to fight alphago to admit that the future belongs to artificial intelligence
Ke Jie is a professional Chinese go player, ranking first in the world. Born on August 2, 1997, he is still under 20 years old. Although most people in go and science and technology don't like Ke Jie to win, Ke Jie still uses a relaxed attitude to deal with the competition.
After the siege match on May 18 and the man-machine battle on May 23, Ke Jie had a rare break of nearly a week. On the 20th, the kojie family arrived in Wuzhen, the place of competition. In order to adjust her state, Ke Jie and her parents visited Wuzhen scenic spot on May 20.
In the early morning of the 21st, Ke Jie posted a picture of a tourist attraction and a picture of him holding a selfie pole on her microblog.
In an exclusive interview with the press conference, Ke Jie said that he once thought AI was more powerful in calculation, but through actual observation, he found that AI was very powerful in setting up the macro chess game. 'I used to think that go is a grand ceremony of human wisdom. No machine can defeat human players, but now alphago has changed the whole player's ecological environment. '
Standing on the node of historical change, Ke Jie said that he would play his own chess well, would not compromise, and would defeat alphago with a winning mentality.
On the evening of May 22, Ke Jie published the microblog "the last duel" and said that "whether I win or lose, this will be the last three sets of match between me and AI & hellip; & hellip; in fact, in private, I have said this idea with my friends and family many times, and now the AI progress is far faster than we think. For example, the unique arts made in China and Nissan's Zen still have a big gap with aiphago, but they have shown super strength... I believe that the future belongs to artificial intelligence. '
