On a site note, I really feel bad for Kasparov. Seems like anytime
there is a human vs computer game match the news always brings up Deep
Blue.  It has to feel bad to always see your name time and time again
be used as a "loser" instead of the remarkable an legendary chess
player he is.

Just my $0.02

matching and analysis.  Will be interesting to see how this pans out.

Exciting.  A new program ponanGo will attend the comming UEC Cup.  Its 
author has developed the strongest computer Shogi program, Ponanza in 
Japan (http://jsb.cs.uec.ac.jp/~igo/eng/participant.html), though no 
FaceGo nor GoogleGo is in the list :p.  A good news: the prize 
money has increased (http://jsb.cs.uec.ac.jp/~igo/eng/prize.html).

Be care!  The deadline (10th Dec) is coming very soon!

>Great times.

Really a big fun.

>Will we see bots on par with top humans before 2020?

I'd like to bet no, just possible for 13x13.

Hi Rémi,

thanks for the very interesting link.

It seems that a race for a new breakthrough is open.
Let's see if Abakus or Aya or CrazyStone or
FaceGo or GoogleGo or Zen or some other bot
will become the winner.

Great times.

Will we see bots on par with top humans before 2020?

Ingo.

I'm due for a sabbatical in the 2016-2017 academic year. If the humans are
still standing, I'll continue work on Go. If not, I'll spend it finding a
new research topic.

So ... if y'all could just crack this grand challenge problem in the next
few months, that'd be great. :-)
