Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 440 Trunks
"The first man-machine battle is finally here! What I missed! I won't miss it this time!"

I've waited ten years for this opportunity! I'm going to prove myself! Not to show off how great I am! I'm going to show everyone that I'll take back what I've lost!
I was worried that you'd beaten Li Junhe too badly, and that this generation of dogs would just be wasting their time in the lab, too afraid to come out, just sitting there idle.

Watching Boss Zhang leave through the door, Old Ke, who had been dozing off, finally woke up, rubbed his eyes, and couldn't help but start complaining.

He barely listened to the discussion for over an hour, only occasionally dozing off in a half-awake state, until now he seemed to have truly come back to his senses.

The group of people drinking tea and discussing Old Ke had absolutely no interest in listening, since they had already heard similar things in their previous lives. Moreover, Old Ke felt that he understood artificial intelligence better than anyone else present, and these things were just old pages he had already turned over.

So the only thing that interested Professor Ke was giving this artificial intelligence the name "Jueyi" (Exquisite Artificial Intelligence).

“Wanwan is just like you…” Old Ke muttered to himself, a faint smile playing on his lips. “Although she is not ‘you’, she is more like ‘you’ than ‘you’.”

If I can't beat Jueyi, am I not even able to beat Jueyi?!
The days when I was brutally "tortured" by the original are still vivid in my mind. Now that I've finally found a "replacement," I can at least pull up my pants, straighten my back, and then casually say, "It's nothing special."

Looking at Elder Ke standing beside him, Yi Zheng asked his concerns: "You said that the first generation of artificial intelligence was trained through chess records, but now the world has your artificial intelligence's chess records. Do you think its strength will still be the same as the first generation of AI you knew before?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Ke couldn't help but scratch his head, seemingly having never considered this point: "According to your logic, I've become Trunks? Because of my arrival, the androids have undergone a generational change and become stronger?"

That might be a bit more impressive, but it's hard to say. He said the score was over 3,900. I remember that the AI ​​score in our area used to be over 3,800, so it's about 100 points more.

He's a little bit stronger, but that's okay. I'll go first! There are several rounds, right? We'll take turns! I'll go first to test his strength and scout things out for you.

Putting everything else aside, I have plenty of experience when it comes to beating dogs!

Although Professor Ke did not specify which aspect of this experience it was.

Mr. Ke has stated for a long time that he doesn't mind not being allowed to substitute for others in regular professional competitions, and he has no interest in bullying children.

Reading light novels is fun for a couple of times, but it gets boring after a while.

But when it comes to beating dogs, no matter how many rounds there are, you must make sure to allocate some to yourself!

So many years have passed! I must give myself a good beating!

This was something Yi Zheng had already promised Ke Lao from the beginning: the two of them would take turns playing, but Yi Zheng would play the majority of the time.

Therefore, Yi Zheng just proposed that, regardless of the outcome, the game must go to five games.

So it's equivalent to Yi Zheng winning three games and Ke Lao winning two games.

"However, this competition is still some time away; the World Cup is the real focus now."

Yi Zheng poured the tea leaves from his cup into the trash can. This year can be described as a big year for competitions.

The World Cup in April, the Asian Games in July, the World Championships in October, and the Asian Championships in December are all international-level competitions. For top athletes, this year will definitely be a busy one, with so many competitions that they can't even finish them all, and they don't even have time to participate in commercial tournaments.

After a brief discussion, the group decided to postpone the human-machine competition to March, which is next month, and to hold the competition urgently.

However, it's not a big problem, since only Yi Zheng is participating in this competition. Yi Zheng only needs to give up the Rookie King battle.

After all, it does seem a bit like Yi Zheng is beating up a kid when he's playing for Rookie of the Year.

Furthermore, from May to June onwards, we will inevitably be at the training base preparing for the Asian Games. At that time, we will even need to submit a report if we want to leave.

Therefore, the competition must be held before the official training camp for the Asian Games; otherwise, the competition schedule will have to be postponed to the second half of the year.

At this moment, Zhang Xinping also got into the car. His secretary, sitting in the passenger seat, glanced at the person in the back and hummed something about first arriving in Xianyang to become the king, and then being asked a question by the king's boss upon arriving in Xianyang.

"Boss, besides our internal testing of the AI, should we also find some other human chess players to test it with?"

After all, in actual combat, we only faced some ordinary professional players before. Although they were easily defeated, the skill gap was too large, so there was no value in comparing them.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xinping tapped his fingers on his thigh: "I originally planned to have the artificial intelligence tested online, playing against other players as a mysterious chess player."

However, this could lead to concentrated research, and if their methods were figured out, there might be additional risks.

At this point, Zhang Xinping couldn't help but shake his head. Although artificial intelligence's ability to solve chess problems far surpasses that of humans, in games like Chinese chess, the difference between AI and the world's number one player is basically only a handicap of one knight.

Regarding Go, Zhang Xinping originally felt that being able to give all players a one-move advantage would be sufficient, but a mysterious human player, AlphaGo, had previously achieved that.

At first, Zhang Xinping even doubted whether AlphaGo was an artificial intelligence developed by Amika, since it sounded too much like the name of a program.

However, later on, both his IP address and his anthropomorphic speech made people feel that he was a real person.

After all, if it were truly an artificial intelligence developed abroad, it would have already been publicly tested given its capabilities; why would it still be kept hidden?

And if it really is artificial intelligence, that would be the scariest thing.

As a science fiction writer once said: the ultimate development direction of artificial intelligence should not be merely to defeat humans on the chessboard, but rather, when it loses to humans in a game of chess, it will be so anxious that it will pick up the chessboard and smash it directly on the human's head. That is what true artificial intelligence is.

"not enough."

Zhang Xinping looked out the window and murmured to himself, "Regardless of the outcome against Yi Zheng, we still need to continue thinking about better algorithms and more efficient training methods... The potential of artificial intelligence in Go is far more than this."
