Thank you.

When I said I was "in good company" by not having registered for the UEC
Cup, I was actually referring to you (AlphaGo), BTW.

I feel that maybe Ingo may have misunderstood me there :-)

[Computer-go] Side events at EGC 2017

2017-02-21 Thread Ingo Althöfer 
Hello,
I have been asked by Pawel Morawiecki, if there will be interesting
side events in the European Go Congress 2017.

> I plan to come for EGC for 5 days or so. But i don't know which 
> week should i choose. Are there any attractive side events ?
> I know that the movie "Surrounding game" is to be played 24th June. 

On Thursday, July 22, there will be a (large) Board Game evening.
For Wednesday, August 02, a new codecentric Challenge is intended:
strong human vs a go program running onsite on a mobile phone or smartphone.


> Something changed about AlphaGo?

Good question. We still hope that Deepmind understands what a great opportunity
a presentation in the EGC (the largest Go event in the world, in number of 
participants) would mean. But,. hope is last to die.

Ingo.


 
Would be grateful for your recommendation.
Best,
Paweł

Thank you for the kind words, it is appreciated.

I need my machine back to try a few more things, so Leela won't be on
KGS for a while. (I was surprised to see it on CGOS - it's not my account).

I did not register for the UEC Cup. I seem to be in good company there,
sadly.

in various topics, ranging from Correctness, to Computational 
creativity, to Programming, to Deep Learning, to High Performance 
Computing, and to Security.
He added:
