In the end, the game was won by four sons, but Chen Zhaodi praised her meticulous thinking and especially good at calculating. Chen Zhaodi's face turned slightly red and embarrassed.

"This classmate, you seem to be from the mathematics department, right?" Qi Shengli asked.

Chen Zhaodi hurriedly nodded and said that she was in her sophomore year this year and majored in applied mathematics.

"The math is really good." Qi Shengli praised it and suddenly sighed: "But no matter how powerful the human brain is, it is not as good as a computer."

"President Qi, what do you mean?" The students around him felt inexplicably and suddenly said something.

"I am a computer student, and my tutor also likes playing Go very much. The day before yesterday, he used the computer to write a program to play Go."

ah?

Can you still play Go on a computer?

Although computers are far from becoming popular now, universities have established computer departments and offered computer courses.

Xia Hongjun, who was a scholar of literature, naturally would not take such classes, but he was curious about having been involved in science students, put on a white coat and changed into slippers, and entered the computer classroom with a red stall. When the computer was turned on, he lost interest.

Not only was the slow start of the computer, but it was so full of English that it was nothing, but it used all the commands of the Dos system! Looking at the excited look of the students around the computer, Xia Hongjun curled his lips and sneaked out of the classroom.

In later generations, there was something new about human-computer wars, but now it is the mid-1980s. It is the first time I heard that there are many computers and people playing Go against each other. They ask whether it is a good human or a good computer.

"Of course, it's because of the strong human brain. I've used that software, at best, it's the second-level amateur level." Qi Shengli replied.

"Then it must be that computers were invented by the human brain. How can computers compare to human brains no matter how powerful they are?" A small student looked quite proud.

Unexpectedly, Qi Shengli shook his head: "My tutor said that the computer he used was 286, which was running too slowly. If he used the most advanced 386 now, the effect would definitely be different."

"What you mean is that if the computer runs fast enough and advanced enough in the future, the compiled software can defeat people?" The little classmate immediately thought of a question.

Qi Shengli nodded: "I heard from my tutor that a foreign magazine reported that the chess machine "deep thought" developed by the team of Carnegie Mellon University in the United States has "deep thought". It is said that it can reach the level of international special stunt masters. In fact, they use mathematical brute force algorithms (exhaustrated method)."

"Oh...If that day really comes, then what else can we learn Go? You can't play computers in your life." Qi Shengli's face turned melancholy.

Everyone took a breath after hearing this.

Xia Hongjun stood aside and said nothing.

This is all true. Isn’t there a very popular go artificial intelligence AlphaGo in later generations? It is said that all the top Go masters were defeated.

Ke Jie, the world champion of Go at that time, said: "In my opinion, it (referring to Alpha Go) is the God of Go, and can defeat everything. For the self-progress of alphago, humans are too redundant.

Later I heard that AlphaGo seems to be machine learning, but essentially it also uses brute force algorithms.

However, this involves the future. He is a layman in technology again, so Xia Hongjun did not interrupt.
