AlphaGo Defeats Lee Sedol

DeepMind's AlphaGo defeated Lee Sedol, one of the greatest Go players ever, 4-1 in a five-game match in Seoul. Go has more possible positions than atoms in the universe — brute force was impossible. AlphaGo used deep reinforcement learning and Monte Carlo tree search. In Game 2, AlphaGo played Move 37 — a move so creative that experts called it 'beautiful' and 'not a human move.'
