And while AI plays a key role in building a better, safer world, some fear the fast pace of development could finally leave humans outwitted by our own inventions.<br /><br />AlphaGo&#39;s triumph &quot;shows that the methods we do have are even more powerful than we first thought,&quot; said AI expert Stuart Russell of the University of California&#39;s Berkeley Electrical Engineering &amp; Computer Sciences department. &quot;The fact that AI methods are progressing much faster than expected makes the question of the long-term outcome more urgent,&quot; he told AFP by email.<br /><br />Until just five months ago, computer mastery of the 3,000-year-old game of Go, said to be the most complex ever invented, was thought to be at least a decade off. But then AlphaGo beat European Go champ Fan Hui, and its creators decided to test the programme&#39;s real strength against Lee, one of the game&#39;s all-time masters.<br /><br />Part of the reason for AlphaGo&#39;s success is that it is partly self taught -- having played millions of games against itself after initial programming to figure out the game and hone its tactics through trial and error.Bob Schlenkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06889020206773728748noreply@blogger.com
