Google's AlphaGo AI beats Lee Se-dol again to win Go series 4-1

作者：

  After suffering its first defeat in the Google DeepMind Challenge Match on Sunday, the Go-playing AI AlphaGo has beaten world-class player Lee Se-dol for a fourth time to win the five-game series 4-1 overall. The final game proved to be a close one, with both sides fighting hard and going deep into overtime. AlphaGo is an AI developed by Google-owned British company DeepMind, and had already wrapped up a historic victory on Saturday by becoming the first ever computer program to beat a top-level Go player.
  The win came after a "bad mistake" made early in the game, according to DeepMind founder Demis Hassabis, leaving AlphaGo "trying hard to claw it back." By winning the final game despite its blip in the fourth, AlphaGo has demonstrated beyond doubt its superiority over one of the world's best Go players, reaffirming a major milestone for artificial intelligence in the process.
  It was "the most mindblowing game experience we've had so far," said DeepMind founder Demis Hassabis at the post-match press conference, with an "incredibly close and tense finish." Lee said that he felt sorry the match was coming to an end, while expressing how difficult it has been from a psychological perspective.

Views You Can Use: A New Day in Cuba

作者：
       President Barack Obama  landed  in Cuba on Sunday and made history as the first U.S. president to visit the country since 1928, when Calvin Coolidge arrived by battleship. The president’s trip reflects significant changes in U.S.-Cuban relations: In December 2014, Obama announced that he would restart diplomatic ties with Cuba, and in August 2015, the U.S. embassy reopened in Havana.     However, the U.S. embargo on Cuba remains in place after 50 years, and the president’s trip has generated controversy, particularly due to human rights concerns. Thus the issue of U.S. policy in Cuba is a hot topic of the 2016 presidential election. Republican presidential candidate Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who is the son of a Cuban immigrant, is a particularly vocal opponent of Obama’s approach toward Cuba and penned a  critical op-ed  Sunday for Politico.     Kenneth Walsh, chief White House correspondent for U.S. News ...
