Go: I’m 50-50 against the AI

Chapter 401 400. Thirty million

"Man-machine five-game chess!?"

Ying Jie, who returned to the chess academy, couldn't help but say something in surprise when he heard the words of these leaders.

Ying Jie originally thought that the opponent would challenge him only after winning five games with Gao Yongxia.

I will compete with a certain Ke and directly challenge the second-generation dogs. This competition is just the only chance to fight against the first-generation dogs.

As a result, who knew that the research and development team of the Go artificial intelligence could not sit still. After playing against Gao Yongxia, they seamlessly connected and directly challenged themselves.

Aren't they afraid that Gao Yongxia won one or two games and it would be more embarrassing to challenge himself?

But if Ying Jie thought about it carefully, he could realize that the other party was in an awkward situation.

The other party's artificial intelligence has already lost to humans who are the world's number one. Even if it wins against everyone else, it will not be convincing, because everyone else is also defeated by his own hands.

And if you look purely at strength, the last time I encountered artificial intelligence as an example, Gao Yongxia's probability of winning a game was very small.

The probability of 100% is not that you can win one game after playing ten games. The probability of winning one game for real forces is very small.

If the artificial intelligence of Wufanqi goes further, the possibility of Gao Yongxia winning a game is very small, or even almost non-existent, unless the opponent's bug is really stuck.

To a certain extent, the artificial intelligence research and development company is still very confident and dares to challenge itself directly.

At least it proved that the artificial intelligence he encountered this time was definitely not the limit of this version of artificial intelligence.

Otherwise, the other party would not dare to do such a thing.

"What are their terms?"

To the surprise of all the leaders, Ying Jie was neither excited nor refused, but calmly negotiated terms with them first.

After the change of leadership, the Chinese Go Association has established a certain relationship with China Wish and has become an individual organization that is responsible for its own profits and losses.

So to a certain extent, man-machine battle is a good advertising point for them.

What is missing most from niche sports?

topic.

Only when there is a topic, is out of the circle, and everyone knows about it, will there be sponsorship.

If you are not famous, who will sponsor you? Really rich people are more shrewd than the last. It is even harder for them to squeeze money out of others or to break their own bones.

But what a great advertising spot this time.

Humans versus artificial intelligence.

No matter which industry you are in, you can easily stir up some topics.

After all, science fiction has been a topic that everyone has been exposed to for so long.

Not to mention Ying Jie on the human side, who is very legendary in his own right. Those who didn’t know about it would have thought he was the protagonist of the novel.

The strongest human chess master in 5,000 years, fights against an artificial intelligence that is the result of human technology.

Is it the flesh and blood of human beings, or the cyber ascension of machines to become more powerful?

Even an elderly man of several decades can be lifted up from his stomach.

The chairman of the Go Association couldn't help coughing twice when he heard this: "Originally, the opponent challenged Gao Yongxia first.

So naturally it should be held in South Korea, which has nothing to do with us.

But the other party suddenly wants to join you. Two five-game chess constitute a human-machine juban chess, so we naturally have a certain amount of initiative.

We definitely want to hold it in our country, especially the gimmick of human-machine Juban chess. I don’t know how many people will attract attention. Every place wants to host our competition this time to increase their popularity.

If it were to be held in China, we would definitely choose Zhejiang as our first choice. Firstly, the conditions offered by the other party are indeed generous, and secondly, after all, Danghu Tenth Bureau is a very classic masterpiece.

If the Human-Machine 10th Edition were also held here, the echoes would not necessarily be a good story. "

Listening to the leader's nonsense, Ying Jie couldn't help but roll his eyes: "What I want to say is, how much money can I get?"

To put it simply, the human-machine battle is to some extent an artificial intelligence trying to become famous by stepping on the already famous professional Go players.

Especially if he defeats the world's number one Go player, then he has proved that he has defeated the whole world.

Therefore, if you want the other party to accept the challenge, the artificial intelligence R\u0026D company must bleed, otherwise they will not accept your challenge.

Especially when you haven't proven yourself, people may even think you are just trying to gain popularity.

If Ying Jie remembers correctly, in the first human-machine battle, Xiao Li received a reward of US$30,000 for every round. If he won, there would be an additional bonus of US$20,000, and the winner's bonus would be even greater. is up to $1 million.

For the first time in his life, a generation of dogs faced off against the former number one player in the world, with four wins and one loss. In the end, Xiao Li received a bonus of US$170,000, which is roughly equivalent to 1.2 million RMB, the most basic World Series bonus.

It is rumored that Ke’s game fee against the second-generation dog is as high as 100,000 US dollars per game, and the winner of the third game can take home 1.5 million US dollars.

The difference between the human-machine game and ordinary chess is that the normal human game is over if you win three games of 5-game chess, and it is over if you win two games of 3-game chess. However, the human-machine game requires that all games must be played. Just fine.

To put it simply, the artificial intelligence research and development company and Ying Jie made an appointment to play five rounds of chess. No matter what the alignment result of each game was, no matter how miserable one of the losers would be, and how much the collapse would be, both parties had to play five full games.

If one party fails continuously, it will undoubtedly be a torture or even humiliation for the other party.

"In terms of money, the other party gave me almost 50,000 US dollars for a game of chess. If I win a game, the bonus can be as high as 100,000 US dollars. The winner of the last five rounds of chess can get a reward of 1.2 million US dollars."

Listening to what the leader above said, Ying Jie couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"So low?"

No matter what, he is a Wu Qi Dynasty Chinese chess master with a 100% winning rate, so why is his salary not as high as that of Ke?

no!

Absolutely not!

Hearing Ying Jie's sudden complaint, the entire Go leadership team, including Lu Li's 9th Dan who was watching, couldn't help but be stunned.

Is this still low? !

You know, the prize money for an ordinary national competition is only 400,000 RMB. If it is a women's national competition, the prize money will be even lower.

No matter whether you win or lose in the next game, you have already reached the price of a national championship, but if you win a game, the bonus will be higher.

Even if all five rounds were lost, the prize money received would be more than half of the Ying's Cup prize money, which is currently the highest prize in the World Series.

If we win them all, we won’t dare to think about it!

"It's really low."

Hearing what Ying Jie said, Lu Li's 9th dan couldn't help but persuaded him sincerely: "This bonus is really high."

Gao Yongxia's prize money is not as high as yours. He has already participated in the competition, and he can't wait to win tomorrow.

You need to know that in addition to car loans and house loans, the other party also has children to study abroad and support.

You, a 16-year-old brat, still despise the fact that such a large bonus is too low.

“Leaders, I feel that your thinking has not changed.

Now it's not that they're inviting me, it's that they're challenging me.

I have defeated artificial intelligence. Anyone in the world who knows the latest news knows that Ying Jie, the world's number one Go player, defeated artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence is defeated by humans in the field of Go.

This is such an uncomfortable thing for a research and development company. Their products cannot even defeat humans.

If I were them they would have to defeat me no matter what the cost.

So I am the one who has a rare commodity and is waiting for a price.

If they can't defeat me, no matter what achievements their artificial intelligence achieves, they will be talked about. "

Ying Jie sat leisurely on the chair, took a sip of the Pu'er tea that the vice chairman poured for him, and said happily.

Now it’s not about proving that you are better than artificial intelligence.

But this new artificial intelligence has to prove that it is better than the first person in the world.

To a certain extent, even if the opponent defeats Gao Yongxia according to the original plan, no one will take it seriously.

You defeated Gao Yongxia, can you defeat Yingjie?

What's the point of not being able to win against Ying Jie?

Gao Yongxia has never defeated Ying Jie!

I shouldn't be anxious, what I should be anxious about is the artificial intelligence research and development company.

"But if this character can only defeat Gao Yongxia 5:0, and then challenges you again, if you don't accept it, doesn't it mean that humans are already afraid of artificial intelligence?"

"Brother Lu Li, you worry too much.

Now it is them who have to prove themselves, not me who has to prove myself. I have already proved that I am better than their dog.

Now they are asking me to certify their dogs, which is completely different. "

Like its previous life, this Go artificial intelligence is named AlphaGo.

The translated meaning is the Go artificial intelligence being tested.

Ying Jie shook the tea cup in his hand and couldn't help laughing.

I originally thought that I would be the challenger to challenge the dog.

I didn't expect that my position would actually change in reality.

The dog acts as a challenger to himself as the first human being.

In a sense, things are changing.

"Then what do you want? If you make any excessive demands, the other party won't agree, right?"

Ying Jie couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "How can you say it's too much? If they are confident, my conditions will help them save money even more than Gao Yongxia."

"ah?"

After hearing what Ying Jie said, several chairmen and vice-chairmen of the Chinese Go Association couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.

They originally thought that Ying Jie would ask the lion to open his mouth. They were still thinking about how to coordinate the balance between the price offered by the artificial intelligence company and the price offered by Ying Jie.

In the end, Ying Jie actually said that he wanted to help artificial intelligence companies save money?

The sun comes out in the west?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Who doesn’t know that every penny Ying Jie makes is good? Isn’t it a dream to ask him to save money for artificial intelligence companies?

"Ying Jie, do you have any ideas?"

The several leaders who looked at each other didn't say anything, but Lu Lijiu, who was familiar with Ying Jie, asked him directly.

Since Ying Jie dared to say this, it proved that the other party must have been prepared.

Ying Jie turned the empty cup in his hand on the table and said with a smile: "Since the other party said that no matter whether you win or lose the game, there will be a game fee, and even if you win, you will get an extra bonus.

I don't need any of these things, I don't need any game fees, and I don't need any bonuses from winning a game. "

"you mean?"

"If I remember correctly, the tournament with the highest prize money right now is the one held by Mr. Pei with a prize of 3 million soft girl coins. Since they have a match fee, they are willing to pay 1.2 million US dollars as the winner's prize.

Then play bigger. If you lose, you won't get a penny in prize money. You will just make up the whole amount. The winner will get a bonus of 30 million, and the loser will get nothing.

I don’t have to pay a penny for the game fee, and the reward for winning the game is 30 million. Who wins, and who takes the 30 million home directly?

Whoever loses will go home by himself and pay for the air ticket himself. "

"30 million?"

Upon hearing this amount, several leaders of the Chinese Chess Association couldn't help but stand up.

This bonus is simply unheard of.

You know, even the prize money for the World Series finals is only a few million, and the minimum standard is even more than 1 million.

30 million is equivalent to the minimum bonus of 30 World Series champions.

According to the standard of holding up to six major competitions in a year, this bonus can provide the World Series championship bonus for five consecutive years.

Simply outrageous? !

"Ying Jie, do you think the other party will agree to this request?"

“If they are confident, they will naturally agree.

If they don't have confidence, it proves that the dog they are talking about has no chance of beating me, so what's the point of me competing? "

Hearing this, several people from the Chinese Go Association couldn't help but look at each other, and then nodded.

"We will discuss it with the other party's company and will notify you directly when the time comes."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."

Hearing this, Ying Jie couldn't help but stretch, stood up, and then left the conference room without looking back.

Looking at Ying Jie leaving, the newly appointed Chairman of the Go Association, Chairman Lin, couldn't help but ask: "Can Ying Jie win?"

"Didn't you win before?"

"But artificial intelligence should improve. That artificial intelligence just defeated professional players half a year ago."

"Ying Jie is so confident, I believe in him."

"He is a young man who doesn't know how high the sky is and how high it is."

Listening to the quarrel of several people, Chairman Lin couldn't help but patted the table: "Is it useful to argue?

What Ying Jie said just now is right, the initiative is in our hands, and we are the ones who are begging us to do things. Of course we have to get everything we need.

According to what Ying Jie said, the winner will receive a bonus of 30 million, even if he loses one point, he will not accept the other party's challenge.

And the location must be set at Danghu in our country. The Korean side's previous preparations are their own business and have nothing to do with the Korean side. "

After hearing the person in charge's final decision, everyone else nodded, not daring to have any opinions.

Soon after a few days, an account called AlphaGo appeared on both Little Bluebird and Weibo.

The first post on the account has only one content.

December 12th.

Go artificial intelligence battles against two new and old human kings.

The ultimate battle between man and machine.

Science fiction becomes reality!

Danghu has ten machines and ten games!

Ying Jie saw the topic on Weibo and silently posted.

“Artificial intelligence cannot defeat humans.

At least, it can't defeat me. "

Ps: 7,000 will be restored tomorrow
