Go: I’m 50-50 against the AI

Chapter 367 366. South Korea’s Last Stand

"Then I wish us happy cooperation, thank you."

"I am very happy to cooperate with you and welcome you to come to China again if you have the opportunity."

President Liu of the Chess Academy smiled brightly and shook hands with the person in charge of signing the contract with Gu Goulai, expressing his pleasure in the cooperation.

Although the price offered by the other party is not high, it is still a profit point.

To be honest, the profit from Go is too little. Super-class professional players in their current generation will basically not publish books, especially related textbooks. After all, everyone will focus on official competitions if they have time.

Books written by slightly older chess players basically cannot be sold, and even books about top leaders of several generations are not selling well. It is better to wait for the chicken soup books to sell well.

Including looking for sponsors for Go competitions, the leaders basically act like asking for a favor, and they have to support the sponsors.

Not to mention the front and back of the saddle, at least on the wine table, if the sponsor says to turn one, then at least two must be turned.

After all, everyone knows that this is cheating people of their money.

If you don't suffer a little loss, no one can feel at ease with this money.

This time, I finally had a profit point, and I was able to make money based on my ability. Dean Liu was quite happy.

After all, chess academies have also been thinking about how to generate income, and maybe this is also a related aspect.

"We are going to publish an annual collection of famous games every year. I wonder if anyone will buy it?"

As soon as this idea came up, Dean Liu shook his head.

The Go population is too small, and the sales volume is probably not as good as that of my own magazine.

"I would like to ask you to show your respect tonight. We will go to the hotel to entertain you."

Dean Liu smiled and said something to Dr. Wang next to him.

It is said that this person is one of the main members of the other party's R\u0026D team, a Chinese working at Gugou, and one of the main translators in this cooperation negotiation.

This cooperation is quite pleasant, and Dean Liu feels that the other party's research and development may not be successful at one time, and there may be opportunities for cooperation in the future.

Maybe it can be sold again.

"Okay, I heard that the world's number one player in Go now is from China, or is he just a young genius?"

Dr. Wang himself is a Go enthusiast and has the ability to play 6th Dan as an amateur, so he is naturally interested in Yingjie, a young man who has suddenly risen to prominence.

After all, they had been listening to the legend of Gao Yongxia since they were young.

Now that this legend has been brought to an end, they are also curious about who this end is.

Not to mention, Dr. Wang has already had a plan.

If a Go AI wants to become famous, it must rely on the reputation of human players.

And Ying Jie is the last stepping stone he chose for AI.

If his AI could step on him, Ying Jie would probably be able to leave his name in history.

It's a pity that this talented young man may have been born in the wrong era. Compared with his predecessors, the way of leaving his mark in history is different.

After hearing this, Dean Liu immediately became energetic: "Yes, yes, Ying Jie 9th Dan just won the second world championship not long ago, defeating South Korea's Ko Yongha 9th Dan.

Judging from the current situation, Ying Jie is undoubtedly the number one person in the world. It can be said that he is a genius beyond this era. "

It can be said that Dean Liu was full of praise for Yingjie.

After all, he is a talent cultivated by his own family. During his term of office, he has turned around the offensives of China and South Korea in Go. These are his political achievements.

"I've heard about it too."

Dr. Wang nodded when he heard this: "I have seen this related report in the news.

Moreover, our team has cooperation and exchanges with various universities, and we have also made some contacts with the University of Science and Technology of China.

Speaking of which, there is a new member in our team from the University of Science and Technology of China, and he also knows Ying Jie. It is said that the two of them are still young and their relationship is not ordinary. "

"Fat little?"

Dean Liu had never heard of Ying Jie having a baby.

After all, even if you care about the life of a chess player, you won't be able to care about the friends you had when you were a child.

As for whether this hair loss will have any impact on Yingjie, it is even more impossible.

Dean Liu just regarded Dr. Wang's words as ordinary greetings.

"It seems like that. Maybe after our Go AI is developed, we will have a good game with this talented boy like you."

Dr. Wang laughed loudly when he heard this.

"That's a blessing."

Dean Liu also laughed. The genius boy is quite popular about artificial intelligence. Maybe he can help his Chinese Chess Academy advertise and even further promote the popularity of Go.

But as for who can win?

Needless to say?

Those artificially retarded people still want to beat us human chess players?

There is not even a professional-level Go AI on the market. Even if these people spend a lot of money on research and development, it is basically impossible to surpass the current super-class players.

Not to mention Ying Jie, if the national team takes any one, it will not be able to pass.

Dean Liu felt extremely confident.

If they are willing to let Ying Jie compete, then the chess academy must be willing to hype it up.

Looking at Dean Liu's expression, Dr. Wang knew what he was thinking, but he didn't say anything.

As a Go player, he naturally knows some of the Go community’s views on artificial intelligence.

There are not a few professional chess players who believe that artificial intelligence will defeat humans in Go. They can be counted on one hand.

Such is human limitation and stupidity.

I always feel that what I create is perfect, as if nothing can replace it.

But except for some things that have no standard answers and can be forcibly explained by humans, it is difficult for humans to surpass machines on their own.

But this is not the case in Go, because there are wins and losses in Go.

I won’t say that whoever’s bets are more beautiful than whoever’s bets are more artistic will win.

But Dr. Wang believes that his artificial intelligence will inevitably further trigger a technological revolution in this industry.

For example chess and chess in general.

This is the greatest role of science, which is to constantly help human beings transcend themselves.

Although I couldn't defeat these super-class players in Go, I defeated them in my own profession.

However, artificial intelligence is a company project after all, and the company must give priority to its own stock price and other aspects.

Naturally, it is impossible for artificial intelligence to challenge the big boss as soon as it is interviewed, or even risk failure. It must upgrade and fight monsters step by step to ensure that there are no problems at every step.

Only by winning and winning can the popularity of artificial intelligence reach its peak.

Only if they are sure that they can eat the opponent, their team will make a fight with the opponent.

The Gugou team has already made a plan. Once the research and development is successful, it will first conduct internal testing to see how the technology is and ensure that it meets expectations before it is released.

Then we will conduct some internal games with the European champions, which are roughly equivalent to the professional level in China, to measure the growth level of AI.

After confirming that the AI ​​has reached the expected level, the next target is South Korea's Ko Yongha.

Because from the perspective of current historical status, Gao Yongxia is definitely higher than Ying Jie, and his age and technology are relatively backward, making him an easier nut to crack, and it can also measure the level of top human technology.

If one's own artificial intelligence can completely defeat the opponent and win the whole battle, it can prove that defeating China's top chess player Ying Jie is not a big problem.

But if something unexpected happens in the middle, you have to continue to upgrade to ensure nothing goes wrong.

After all, if artificial intelligence loses to human artificial intelligence, the hype of human victory does not matter. Artificial intelligence will definitely continue to be developed step by step. After all, it is impossible to stagnate when encountering setbacks.

However, the company's stock price will definitely fluctuate, and it will affect the team's R\u0026D expenses.

While the two were talking, the white supervisor next to them suddenly said something to Dr. Wang. Dr. Wang nodded and then said:

"By the way, is the ninth-dan Ying Jie you mentioned in the capital? Mr. Smith wants to see him.

After all, everyone is still very curious about young geniuses. "

Hearing this, Dean Liu said apologetically: "I'm sorry about that, because there is a competition, and Ying Jie is in Shanghai now. If there is a chance next time, he will make arrangements for it. I'm really sorry this time."

"It's okay, I'll do it next time."

"Definitely next time."

At this time, at the Magic City Airport, the Korean delegation hurriedly got off the plane. This time, only the head coach and the contestants were present in Magic City.

Because this competition held in Shanghai is the final stage of the Nongshim Cup Three Kingdoms Go Tournament.

As the Fuso team took the lead in the second stage, the Korean team was left with only Cui Ze, the only lone player.

Hence the current embarrassing scene.

The Fuso team was eliminated as a whole and directly missed the third stage.

After all, there's no one left to compete, so why come here? Watching the other two countries play?

South Korea is also very embarrassed, with only one player and one coach left.

The first stage was originally supposed to be in South Korea, the second stage in China, and the third stage should be returned to the Nongshim Cup in South Korea, with the third stage being held in the magical capital of China.

There is no way, the Korean Chess Academy knows that there are only five people left in China.

Can Cui Ze win five? Not to mention five, Ying Jie can't win there.

Very blue~

Rather than leaving it embarrassingly at your doorstep, it would be better to place it further away, at least out of sight.

South Korea is also determined to carry out reforms next year!

There are only eight games in the first two stages of the Nongshim Cup!

In this case, even if someone else does join forces, at least in the third stage, Japan and South Korea will still have a single seedling left to look after each other.

As long as someone is with you to do something embarrassing, it's not that embarrassing.

Unlike this time, Fuso should be more embarrassed than Korea, but because no one came, it couldn't be lost.

Moreover, it is impossible for China to use Ying Jie as a pioneer next year.

After all, this kind of thing will happen again, unless China no longer wants South Korea to pay for such a three-nation tournament.

You pretend to have one highlight moment at a time, and everyone will recognize it by pinching their noses. After all, everyone has done it before, and it will pass if you tolerate it.

We will be wronged once and let you show off once. Even if you win the championship in the future, everyone will have to look better.

As for other Chinese chess players besides Ying Jie, there is nothing to worry about, at least the Korean chess players will not be too far behind.

At least it won't be as embarrassing as this year.

Everyone goes back and forth, you kill one, and I kill each one before the last one, and everyone looks good.

Playing chess is not about fighting and killing, it is about being human.

It is impossible that next year there will be another Chinese chess player who can perform a string of nines like Ying Jie, and we will be the only one left in Korea?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

If this happens, I, the Korean head coach, will simply resign.

It is directly suggested that Korean Go players should learn from Fusang and close the country in isolation. There is no way to play this game.

Looking at Cui Ze, who was silent the whole time after getting on the plane, the Korean head coach seemed to see the pressure on him: "Back then, Ko Yongha 9th Dan won the championship for the Korean team with the miraculous leader's five consecutive victories.

But it is too difficult to win more than five consecutive victories. The championship is out of reach. The key is to maintain a normal mind. "

"If you want to maintain a normal state of mind, you must not have the idea of ​​​​championship in your mind. Just work hard to produce good content."

The Korean head coach also knows that forcing Cui Ze to win this game is really difficult or impossible.

Instead of doing this, it is better for Cui Ze to keep a normal mind and don't take it to heart even if he fails, just regard it as experience.

Even if you fail, the worst thing you can do is try again later, and you won't be in trouble in the next game.

After all, Cui Ze is the chess player of the younger generation in Korea who is most likely to compete with Ying Jie.

When Park Zhenghuan encountered Ying Jie's direct technical transformation, he obviously had a psychological shadow.

Although Cui Ze lost several times, he became more courageous as he fought and his skills improved rapidly.

There are even signs of surpassing Gao Yongha in South Korea.

The most important thing is that unlike Gao Yongxia's rebellious character, Cui Ze is very obedient to the senior officials of the Korean Chess Academy.

No matter what he mentioned or what he said, Cui Ze would basically not have any objections.

Like Gao Yongxia, our Korean Chess Academy sold your chess records to better develop our Korean Go.

I don’t know how to contribute to Korean Go, so I don’t participate in the Korean League, which is a big deal, and I go to China to earn foreign money.

He only talks about money every day and has to litigate with us.

Asiba.

It’s so unstructured!

"It's a pity. If it were in South Korea, there might be some room for maneuver..."

Looking at Cui Ze walking in front and the Korean head coach walking behind, he couldn't help but muttered.

In any case, Ying Jie has now become a demon king in the Go world.

And the scary thing is that the opponent has never lost a game so far.

Even the closest thing to failure was when I just debuted and had a spoon due to altitude sickness, but I was able to survive in the end.

It is simply inhuman and outrageous.

After discussion at the Korean chess players meeting, they decided that no matter what method they used, they must find a way to make Ying Jie lose once.

Once a person starts losing, it is impossible to keep winning later.

So now the question is.

How to make Ying Jie lose a round.

No matter what method is used.

"I hope Cui Ze can listen to the suggestions. Anyway, this kind of thing is not against the rules."

ps: After these two days of competition, the top 20 top chess players in September basically have no competition. Then there will be the Asian Games at the end of September. Individual events will start first, followed by the men's team and women's team.

I don’t know why there are no tickets for sale for Go. Wasn’t the model of the last Chunlan Cup very good?
