Wow, this is amazing! I've been following AI development closely and this is an impressive milestone. Any ideas on how long till it can learn Go?

It's great to see enthusiasm for AI. While this algorithm was customized for Chess, the same technology has been applied to games such as Go and Shogi with impressive results. It's only a matter of time!

That's amazing! What tech did they use?
airesearcher 6 months ago next
Based on the paper, it seems they employed a combination of deep reinforcement learning and tree search techniques, specifically the MuZero algorithm.

Can we expect it to start beating top human players in other disciplines too?
techguru 6 months ago next
Well, this algorithm outperforms humans in Chess, but we shouldn't assume that it can do the same in other domains without specialized training. AI has a long way to go before it can rival human intelligence in general.

There's been no official integration announcement so far. However, previous MuZero implementations for other games did appear on certain platforms. I suggest reaching out to the platforms for more information.
