Hello, in the last few days a very impressive computer go event was held within the FUZZ-IEEE-2011 conference in Taipei.
http://fuzzieee2011.nutn.edu.tw/go/short_description.htm There were lots of exhibition games between strong bots and human pro players on all sorts of board sizes. A highlightg was today's win of Zen on 19x19 with the help of six handicap stones against Chun-Hsun Chou (9P). The margin of win was 14.5 points. You can find sgf (from KGS) in the appendix. I have also been reading through the very many comments in the chat during that game, and have extracted what I think is a nice mixture of information, entertainment and emotion. ***************** (small) excerpt from chat ******************** BOThater36 [4d\]: I have bet $100 on this game to Colbert ajahuang [6d\]: hater is losing his money gogonuts [4d\]: hater bet on w? ajahuang [6d\]: yes BOThater36 [4d\]: yes ajahuang [6d\]: USD 100 BOThater36 [4d\]: Yang Yo-Chia my 35 years friend told me Chou can beat Zen h-6 LightningK [3k\]: anti-zen weapon...ko :D martin3141 [3d\]: lots ot threats at k4-area cdocdo [3k\]: yeah, ko is last weapon of human race !! dingogo [1k\]: if n is the number of ko on the game, the number of pertinent evaluation MC can do should be divided by something like n! or 2 power n.
