KIM PREVAILS AGAIN IN MAN VS MACHINE REMATCH: The Man vs Machine rematch Friday
afternoon was anti-climactic, with Myeong-Wan Kim 8P (l) handily defeating Many
Faces of Go, playing with a 7-stone handicap and running a 32-core
processor. MoGo defeated Kim last year on 9 stones with an 800-core
processor. Kim beat Mogo – playing with 7 stones on a smaller processor
-- last fall at the Cotsen Open, narrowly defeating it at the very end.
“Many Faces was very different,” Kim told the audience after the game.
“It behaved more like a human, while MoGo was pure computer and very
unpredictable. It was easier to play Many Faces -- though it may be the
stronger program -- because I could predict what it was going to do.
Many Faces made better shape, but MoGo had better reading. I’d really
like to see both programs play each other and see what happens.”
