Hi Aja,
thanks for comments.
We certainly didn’t mean to short-change the MoGo team's or anybody else’s
contribution. For this article there were two main points:
- try to explain as much as possible how things work in a current program
- have some kind of dramatic story for the introduction. We chose the Fuego
game against Mr Chou since we are most familiar with it :)
Anything else had to be compressed into very very little space. So there was no
real space for history other than the chess vs Go playing strength graph. The
original version of the graph had program names attached to it, but it got
simplified away.
There is quite a number of popular articles that focus on MoGo or Crazy Stone
or Zen. For example, see articles on
