AlphaGo's victory: Great event in the evolutionary history of mankind

AlphaGo - Google's artificial intelligence last time proved it has mastered one of the oldest and most complex human games - Go. That may have formed in many people who fear no light on AI, that someday, robots will destroy the survival of humanity.

1. The biggest weakness of AlphaGo is that inherent badness is only available in humans

In Korea, where the world champion Lee Se-dol was born, the go is considered a martial art, an indispensable spiritual food. Here, the game is also shown on television, similar to other popular sports like football or tennis. Not only that, there are always scholars day and night studying Go Gos at academies. Now, after 2,500 years of existence and development, the best representative comes from Kim Chi, tragically defeated by the product of mankind - artificial intelligence. For the first time, Korean culture was shaken by technology.

Go is a culture in Korea.

Witnessing GoogleGo's AlphaGo submerged Lee Se-dol with a score of 4-1, South Koreans were really shocked, when they had previously thought that the "hero" of the country would make AI lose. However, the actual results show an unimaginable power of computers. "Last night was really bleak. A lot of people drank alcohol," said Jeong Ahram, a reporter from Joongang Ilbo, the largest newspaper in Korea.

Not waiting for this failure, people begin to become more cautious with AI. Movies like The Terminator have also made people worry about robots, and one of the world's leading scientists like Stephen Hawking or Elon Musk has also quickly made their warnings about danger. potential of artificial intelligence. However, the "bitter fruit" received by Lee and AlphaGo seems to have touched the self-esteem of the Korean people, where the Go is seen as a long-standing cultural tradition. "Korea is afraid that AI will destroy human history and culture," Jeong said.

AlphaGo is seen to have defeated Lee mechanically , with steps that the loser himself must admit to be miraculous. However , " AlphaGo really has no intuition, " co-founder Google - Sergey Brin shared after the overwhelming victory of the company's products. "It even made moves much better than we could think of."

" This is a big event in the evolutionary history of mankind - that is a machine that can overcome intuition, creativity and communication ability , but before that, they are considered our strengths. " , Jang Dae-Ik, a scientific philosopher at Seoul National University (Korea) knows. "Previously, we didn't think that artificial intelligence was creative , " Jeong said. "Now, we know it has the ability to be creative, and more in a brain, and it's even smarter."

When Lee Sedol's failures stacked up, many Koreans expressed concern: "I think it's interesting to enjoy the game, but now I get really scary." Another person said: "Just thinking about how AI can reach people is horrible enough." Across all newspapers in Korea, concern about artificial intelligence is evident in the headlines: "The terrible evolution of artificial intelligence" or " The victory of AlphaGo is spreading the obsession about Artificial intelligence".

Besides, there are also some more optimistic opinions that Lee's loss of impact will spark a revolution in education and learning in Korea . "We are very weak in AI," said Lee Seok-bong, a journalist for the Korean science website, HelloDD.com. "Until now, Koreans still don't know much about AI. But thanks to this game, every Korean will understand it, right now."
