The next day, major media, including Bomi's own online media, reported the interview content about Cao Yang.

"Bomi Go master will fight against the Han Kingdom Lee Sedol 9th ​​Dan. This will be the largest human-machine century war since 2000. What is the final outcome of the artificial intelligence developed by Bomi and Lee Sedol 9th ​​Dan, the world's recognized number one person, representing the strongest computing power of mankind?

We are not known yet.

Before the competition is about to begin, we conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Cao Yang, chairman of Bomi Company.

During this visit, Mr. Cao Yang said so...

Let’s look back at history, the battle between artificial intelligence and humans has never stopped.

From February 10 to 17, 1996, the chess man-machine battle between the world chess king Kasparov and the "Deep Blue" computer was held in the beautiful Philadelphia.

This human-machine war was held to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the birth of computers in the capital.

In this six-game match between man-machine chess, chess king Kasparov defeated the computer "Deep Blue" with a total score of 4-2. The first chess man-machine battle ended with man-machine victory over computers.

During the game, the person who faced the chess king Kasparov was not a computer, but Xu Fengxiong, the representative of the "Deep Blue" development team.

In May 1997, IBM once again invited the world champion of chess and the world's number one Russian chess player Gary Kasparov to Manhattan, New York, and played 6 games of chess with the 97 "Dark Blue" ("Deeper Blue") computer made by the company. At that time, the "Dark Blue" computing power ranked 259th among the world's supercomputers, and could calculate 200 million steps per second. On May 11, 1997, Kasparov won 1 win, 2 losses and 3 draws, and lost to the computer "Dark Blue" with a total score of 2.5 to 3.5.

Now, it has been 13 years since the last time Deep Blue defeated Gary Kasparov, the world's number one player in the world. This time, Bomi's Go artificial intelligence will challenge Mr. Lee Sedol, the number one player in the world. What is the result?

Let's wait and see."

...

"Dig a trough! No? Bomi's artificial intelligence is going to fight against Lee Sedol? You know that Lee Sedol is the number one player in the Go world now. I think Boss Cao is a bit too whimsical?"

"Boss Cao is good at everything, he just likes to brag and criticize. He is even embarrassed to say that he is 70% sure to defeat Lee Sedol. In my opinion, there is not even 10%. You may not know the complexity of Go. This thing can't even count the computers of the whole world together.

I am very optimistic about Lee Sedol and think that humans cannot be defeated by AI."

"Go is completely different from chess. Let me talk about this issue from someone who has been professional in the AI ​​field for 3 years.

First of all, we need to understand one thing. Kasparov, who was defeated by Deep Blue before, should be destined.

Because we know that chess has only 64 grids, black and white, and the changes that can be made are also very limited.

Of course, for most computers in the world at that time, this order of magnitude was actually quite terrifying.

But in dark blue, it is nothing, so dark blue can exhaust all the calculations and get the optimal solution.

Chess, chess, in the late 20th century, had already exhausted all possibilities by computer violence.

So far, no computer can give away all the possibilities in Go.

The computer level in the late 20th century is incomparable to the current computer level

If there are only a few changes that are possible, there is no solution (the numbers cannot be displayed). Because there are three-tribulation cycles or even multiple-tribulation cycles, although they are meaningless, there is still a possibility of change."

"Some time ago, I forgot what a professional chess player said during the live broadcast: adding a piece of computers on the earth can't even install the data that is exhaustive."

"It is theoretically possible to ignore the cost of time and the cost of computing resources. Haha Lin Jianchao mentioned in his lecture series "Go and the Country" that the total number of changes in Go calculated by military cryptographers is about the order of magnitude 10^808 (I don't know if this data is reliable). At present, it is too early to crack Go (if it is defined as finding the exact optimal solution). Some deep learning-based Go tools such as Jueyi and Leela rely on the winning rate of each move and different points to choose, rather than by finding the optimal solution of each move. In other words, it does not need to defeat the God of Go. As long as it chooses a change with a high winning rate (not necessarily the highest), it will be enough to defeat the chess with it."

"Commonly speaking: quantum level.

If you can't go into exhaustion, you will destroy humanity."

"I think the answer that received the most praises in the hot searches above did not clarify the essence of this time the Bomi Go master vs. Lee Sedol.

Bomi's Go AI doesn't need to be exhausted at all, and I think there is no need to do so.

It is based entirely on artificial intelligence based on another algorithm.

Or it can be said that in the past, Deep Blue used a very stupid method of exhausting and obtaining the optimal solution.

Bomi's Go masters use [learning] human Go playing methods to turn the master's thinking style, chess scores and players into their own knowledge.

These are essentially two completely different paths.

It can be said that the former Deep Blue Chess AI, called computers, mainly used calculations to obtain results.

Gu Yun

The current Bomi Go master is the real artificial intelligence.

It can actively learn, simulate and analyze.

Think about it, what is the essential difference between the two?"

"However, I think even if there are big differences in algorithms, it doesn't mean that the current Bomi Go master can beat Lee Sedol.

I read a report before. Google experts said that the strategy of artificial intelligence is very limited and single, and they will not learn and adapt like humans. This time, using this strategy will change next time.

Artificial intelligence cannot do this. They can only help do things with established rules and algorithms that can help us complete mechanical labor, but they will definitely not replace human advanced mental activities.

For example, poetry cannot be done by artificial intelligence, or can only make some meaningless things.

As others say, a mouse keeps dancing on the keyboard. After dancing for hundreds of years, one day it will produce a famous quote from Shakespeare.

Therefore, artificial intelligence can only rely on some rigid things to complete the work.

But there is definitely no way to think like a human being.

You should know that many times when we make decisions, our emotions will change.

The same is true for playing Go. Maybe we should do it seriously and follow the routine, and it will catch it.

But if we go around a little bit, the artificial intelligence may collapse by itself.

So I still like Lee Sedol."

...

In the following days, media reporters kept digging for relevant news.

They not only interviewed Cao Yang, but also interviewed many people from the Chinese Go Association.

It includes some experts who have been in contact with Bomi Company's Go AI game.

"Gu Li Jiudan, how do you think about the Bomi Go master vs. Lee Sedol's Nine Dan? How do you think Bomi's Go AI has developed to now? Is it possible that in the subsequent game, Bomi Go artificial intelligence will defeat Lee Sedol?"

If Lee Sedol is the number one Go player today, then Gu Li is the number one Go player in China.

He was a few years younger than Cao Yang. He won the world championship when he was very young and once won Lee Sedol with a score of 2-0. Although Lee Sedol said that he was not inferior to Gu Li on the grounds that he was tired from his journey and was in poor condition.

On March 22, 2009, Gu Li's 9th Dan had already rushed to the competition site in Gangwon-do, South Korea, but Lee Sedol came late. Due to dissatisfaction with the schedule and the competition venue, Lee Sedol did not set off for a long time. Later, under the "coercion" of his brother, he took a taxi to the stadium overnight. It was already two o'clock in the morning when he arrived. This episode also became the best excuse for Lee Sedol to be in poor condition this time and was eventually defeated by Gu Li.

However, Gu Li is indeed a very powerful ninth dan player today.

"I can't say this question," Gu Li replied, "Because the last time I played chess with Bomi Go Master was half a year ago. At that time, I achieved 7 games and 6 wins. Our judgment on Bomi Go Master at that time was that this guy was very nervous.

Sometimes he plays chess very well-in-law, like a master with superb chess skills, and sometimes like a child, often playing some inexplicable chess.

According to our estimates at that time, the Bomi Go master should probably be at the level between the first stage of the profession and the second stage.

But after that, half a year has passed.

It is hard to say what level the Bomi Go master has grown to now."

Fu Hui 6 Duan replied in an interview: "I am not very optimistic about Lee Sedol's 9th Duan's fight against Bomi Go master this time. Although many people analyzed on the Internet that the development of artificial intelligence is still relatively limited, Go is a very high-complex game, and artificial intelligence cannot be calculated so accurately. Moreover, Lee Sedol's 9th Duan is the world's number one today, so artificial intelligence cannot defeat Lee Sedol.

I have no idea about Lee Sedol's level of 9th dan. His calculation ability is recognized as the strongest, he is very stable in the later stage, and he is very creative and imaginative. If you play chess with him, you will find that you really feel like a child playing chess with adults.

But from my personal experience, what is it like to play chess with Bomi’s Go master?

It’s just that you always feel like you can defeat him next time, but he will destroy your hopes every time you hope.

Do you know this feeling?

More desperate than despair.”

Speaking of this, Fu Hui was already bitter.
