It’s all go in AI game win

AN artificial intelligence program that made history by defeating a human champion in the ancient Chinese game of Go has risen to new heights by beating its former self.

Google’s AlphaGo Zero stormed ahead of human play levels to wipe out the program’s famous earlier version, winning 100 games and losing none.

“It’s amazing to see just how far AlphaGo has come in only two years,” Demis Hassabis, co-founder and chief executive of DeepMind, Google’s UKbased artificial intelligence company, said.
