Go: I’m 50-50 against the AI - Chapter 442 441 The turning point in history?

Chapter 442 441. The turning point in history?

“What’s going on? Why did black suddenly stop moving?”

“The big dragon on Master seems to be dead, right?”

“Probably dead.”

“I just said that this step is definitely meaningless and it’s over.”

“No moves for ten minutes?”

“So what’s going on now? Why is there no response at all from the artificial intelligence side?”

Lu Li glanced at his watch. The Master’s previous moves were very fast. Basically, each step did not take more than ten seconds. Even if it was slower later, it would not take more than a minute to make a move. No matter in any situation, This is true.

Among human chess players, this kind of speed is definitely a countdown level. There has never been a situation where human chess players have to take a long test.

This almost makes everyone think that artificial intelligence like Master does not require long-term thinking. After all, the computing speed of computers is still very fast. Just like the computing speed of Chinese computers was introduced in junior high school politics or history books, even Alpha Dog It is inferior to this kind of computer, and the calculation speed is beyond human imagination.

Under this situation, the Master still had plenty of time left even when it was about to end. The same was true in the previous game, but everyone couldn’t figure out why the Master suddenly stopped making moves. Could it be that he made the wrong move?

Is it true that as everyone thought just now, the Master made a mistake that no beginner would make?

If the last Master’s failure was a verification of the ten words of Go, “Don’t be greedy for victory,” this time I really can’t understand it. It can only be attributed to problems with artificial intelligence. This system has a bug, or testing. The person placed it wrong.

But if the tester makes a mistake, he or she should apply to regret the move, or he should bite the bullet and continue playing, or he can be more decisive and restart the game. No matter what, he can’t just waste time here, right?

If you think about it carefully, this option can be eliminated.

So it turns out that the artificial intelligence suddenly went wrong?

Lu Li couldn’t help but swallowed his saliva. Everyone had thought about the outcome before the game, but I was the only one who never thought that after Ying Jie came back and defeated him in the first game, he directly eliminated his bug in the second game.

Isn’t this too outrageous? No novel would dare to be written like this.

Artificial intelligence developed by such a large company may have gone through many internal tests, not to mention that in the fifty-seven games tested previously, masters from China, Japan and South Korea also tried to find loopholes in the artificial intelligence in addition to the game. Or something like a blind spot, but the efforts of more than fifty rounds basically have no effect at all.

In the end, Ying Jie figured it out in just one game?

What is this called?

Are people more annoying than others?

Are you saying that Ying Jie is not a human being? That’s okay.

However, everything is in the stage of speculation now. We don’t know what the situation is. Everyone, including Ying Jie, is waiting for the Master’s response. But at this time, Dr. Wang and his people are frantically checking the Master’s problem, and they can’t wait to solve it. Go through all the codes.

“The Master card bug is stuck.”

“You don’t need to tell me this! There is something wrong with the operation! Now we need to find out the problem!”

“What exactly is the problem? Find it out quickly!”

“There is no way to investigate it quickly. Master’s program is too huge. Even if we investigate based on the situation at that time, it will take at least a few days!”

“We are testing it now. The game Go has a time limit. We have less than ten minutes to give up automatically. If we can’t find out, do you want me to play with Ying Jie?”

Let yourself, an amateur 5-dan player, play against Ying Jie. There is no such matching mechanism in any game! Even world competitions like the Dream Lily Cup, which involves amateur experts, don’t have such a matching mechanism!

Dr. Wang is really anxious at this time. He and his colleagues have tested countless times and have not found any problems for such a long time. Moreover, it has almost been confirmed that the current Master is far beyond the scope of human beings. It is absolutely impossible. When there is an artificial intelligence that humans can defeat, the Master is put online for internal testing in the form of online duels.

Including the internal testing during this period, the 57 games played by Chinese, Japanese and Korean masters did not find any bugs. At the same time, it perfectly met everyone’s expectations and verified everyone’s views.

The Master has reached a level of perfection, at least for humans.

The top experts from China, Japan and South Korea who participated in the internal testing are all testing artificial intelligence in an attempt to find the flaws of artificial intelligence.

After all, masters from China, Japan and South Korea have also discovered that Master is artificial intelligence. After all, such masters cannot jump out of the cracks in the rocks. If they want to reach the current level of ninth level, there will be no frequent high-intensity games and they will not be involved in death. , it is simply impossible to achieve.

You must know that for top players to participate in the World Series, going out for a walk after dinner is called relaxation.

Ying Jie’s wrong answer was eliminated internally, and it was already tacitly understood what the Master was. Naturally, everyone tried various methods to see if they could find out the problem with the Master, including robbery, life and death, etc. I have basically tried every method, but the Master is as stable as a rock.

It seems that the Master is just like a human being. He has truly learned Go and has reached a level of Go that is beyond the reach of human beings. Everyone can only look up at the mountain.

It was as if a perfect Go God had truly descended into the world.

Some people even felt that Ying Jie might not be able to defeat him.

But no one could have imagined that in the fifty-eighth round this time, Ying Jie suddenly reversed the invincible Master, and even directly defeated the Master in the fifty-ninth round.

The Master is being slapped here, but Dr. Wang is being slapped in the face.

“Why is it like this?”

The researcher next to him looked at the impatient Dr. Wang and patted him on the shoulder: “Wang, progress is always accompanied by failure. As a researcher, you should understand this. Setbacks are inevitable. We have encountered How many setbacks have you experienced? Haven’t you overcome them all?

It is already very important that we can find this problem in the internal test, which proves that this test was not in vain. If this problem occurs in the official game, it will be a big problem.

We must now spend time investigating where this bug originated. This will take time and is not a problem that can be solved today.

So this test must be suspended today. You should understand which is more important. “

“I know…it’s just me.”

When Dr. Wang heard this, he slumped down on the chair and couldn’t help but hold his forehead with his hands. Dr. Wang naturally knew what his colleagues said, and he was not just a layman who didn’t understand anything.

But the problem is that AlphaGo has encountered almost no setbacks since it came out, and has almost successfully completed all our goals. However, every time at critical moments, it always encounters Ying Jie, a stumbling block, which makes AlphaGo fail.

Things only happen in threes, this is already the third time.

Dr. Wang sometimes thinks that without Ying Jie, the Alpha Dog test would have passed long ago, and he would have succeeded long ago.

AlphaGo has long been recognized by the world, and there will not be so many problems at all.

Damn Dec… Ying Jie!

“There are too many setbacks encountered in normal experiments. Since this human being exists, it proves that it is a level that our artificial intelligence must overcome. It is our shortcoming, but there is only this last level left.

There is an old Chinese saying that the road is tortuous but the future is bright, isn’t it? king. Not to mention AlphaGo. In fact, his score can still be improved. The current score is not his limit. People can never outrun cars.

But the emergence of cars also has a process. Periodic failures are not a problem. History will remember the last of us. “

Hearing this, Dr. Wang sighed and nodded: “I am too excited. The top priority is to check the current system problems and solve them.”

Although Dr. Wang’s mood calmed down, he still had an ominous premonition in his heart. If it was just a simple bug, it would be fine. It could be solved by modifying the code. Even if it was troublesome, it would only be a matter of the amount of work.

But if it’s an error involving the underlying logic, it’s really bad.

Errors involving underlying logic are equivalent to the fact that you make this mistake because you are a human being.

You are you, that’s why you make this mistake.

It’s like the highest level of swearing.

It is almost equivalent to negating this system.

The way to deal with it is also very simple, that is, I stop being a human being!

If you switch to artificial intelligence, you may have to develop a completely new set of programs. Then all the hard work before may be in vain.

Dr. Wang can only hope that his ominous premonition is wrong and that this is just a common bug in the program.

“I have no choice but to admit defeat in the second game, and there is no way to win the third game…”

Dr. Wang couldn’t help but sigh. There was nothing he could do about it. Dr. Wang himself couldn’t figure out where this bug appeared. It would be even worse if the same mistake happened again in the third game.

Now we can only suspend the test and wait for the test results to come out.

“Admit defeat.”

Ying Jie couldn’t help but stretch when he saw the victory interface popping up on the screen.

Ying Jie, who had been in front of the screen for five or six hours, now felt sore all over his body. Even when he stood up, he felt pain in several places. It was really uncomfortable just sitting there and having no place to patrol.

I still like to look around while playing chess. It’s interesting to be able to wander around.

[If something happens, the third round will be played another day. 】

Following Master’s last message, the account was immediately offline without waiting for any reply from Ying Jie.

As Master went offline, the comment section of Yehu Go immediately exploded.

【What the hell! Didn’t you say the next three rounds? 】

[Three rounds of chess, two wins out of three games, Ying Jie ended the match point at 2-0, and his performance was normal! win! 】

[Is there a bug in artificial intelligence? 】

[Ying Jie is really bad, he can’t win the key game, no matter it’s the third game or the fifth game, he can only win 2-0 or 3-0, crushing others! Comparing other national players who can always push to the last match point to defeat the opponent, Ying Jie has no program effect at all! Ying Jie still has a lot to improve! 】

【This is a great show! What bullshit artificial intelligence! Both sides are Ying Jie, right? ! No artificial intelligence is so good!

Cheated on my fox coins! Everything is the conspiracy of the wild fox! This competition is basically about recycling our hard-earned gold coins! 】

【Me too! 】

[Ying Jie already has the advantage. Under normal circumstances, Ying Jie wins! 】

【You fart! Ying Jie was clearly at a disadvantage in the middle game! 】

【You are the one farting! Can you understand? The shape in the upper right corner must be Yingjie’s advantage! 】

[Two 56D guys, please stop arguing. Can you understand? Just say it again? Let’s wait for the official self-competition commentary. These two games are really worth pondering. I hope it will be included in the next issue of Go magazine. 】

Different from the smell of gunpowder in the Yehu comment section, the Chinese Chess Academy is happily beating gongs and drums.

Lu Li was so excited that he slapped the table and wanted to jump up.

“Ying Huang is invincible! I’m convinced!”

“Stop talking, I’m going to Hongbin Tower tonight! Book a few tables! We won’t come back until we get drunk!”

“The chess player next door mocked me yesterday and said, “Go has also been defeated by artificial intelligence. When they train tomorrow, I will mock them! Which game can’t even be beaten by humans and machines?”

“You said it as if you won? To be honest, artificial intelligence is indeed far ahead of the rest of us. We still need to study hard.”

“What does this mean? Ying Jie is a Chinese chess player, and I am also a Chinese chess player. They are the same! Everyone wins!”

“If you convert it like this, you might as well make another equation and turn yourself into a world champion.”

“Stop talking, you shouldn’t just knock on the table! Where is Ying Jie! Call him over quickly, I want to kiss him in front of him!”

“hahahahahahahaha!”

Amidst the laughter and laughter in the research room, everyone headed to the competition place in a mighty manner, preparing to lift Ying Jie up to celebrate.

When everyone is almost in despair, Ying Jie can always bring everyone hope!

But when the door was opened, the originally noisy crowd found that the empty room was quiet, and they suddenly became quiet.

Because everyone found that Ying Jie was sitting alone on the chair with his head down and motionless.

Seeing this, Xiao Xiao seemed to have an ominous premonition in his heart. Someone had complained before that if Ying Jie defeated the artificial intelligence, then vomited three liters of blood and died on the spot, he would become an undefeated legend forever.

But this is just a complaint.

Won’t……

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao quickly ran over and touched Ying Jie’s breath tremblingly.

Then……

“No snoring…”

“ah!”

Lu Li was stunned when he heard this, what the hell? Even if it takes five or six hours, no matter how hard you work, people will not…

Ying Jie, he is not twenty years old, he is only eighteen! He has so many championships, so…

Lu Li’s mind hadn’t calmed down for a while. Xiao Xiao’s originally tense expression suddenly relaxed and he raised his hand and said, “He has rhinitis and no sneezing, but he is breathing.”

“Your uncle is crazy!”

Hearing this, everyone who had suddenly fallen into a depressed atmosphere suddenly cursed, and someone immediately lifted Xiao Xiao up and wanted to throw him down.

When Lu Li heard this, he hurried over and shook Ying Jie. Ying Jie seemed to feel his body shaking rapidly, and looked at Lu Li’s 9th Dan who was in front of him in confusion.

What’s going on? Why are you so close?

“ah?”

“If you don’t sleep on the bed, why are you sleeping on the chair? When you’re really tired, you go home and sleep. It scares me to death!”

Lu Lijiu Dan looked at Ying Jie who woke up and finally felt relieved. He should not engage in such a sealed environment next time. Someone must accompany him.

Ying Jie must not let anything happen to this precious baby!

Ying Jie shook his head for a moment, rubbed his forehead, and recalled what happened just now: “I was so tired. I originally wanted to lean on the chair to rest for a while, but I fell asleep directly.”

Ying Jie felt that it might be caused by his usual habits, because every time he played with Jueyi, he would fall asleep after playing. Maybe this habit was brought to the Master.

Of course, the most important reason is that I am too tired. Playing chess with artificial intelligence consumes too much energy. The opponent calculates quickly and has no emotion. Moreover, two consecutive games last for five or six hours. This kind of pressure One can imagine.

“Okay, okay, don’t rush to bed now! We’ll treat you tonight, you pay, Hongbin Tower! How about it?”

Looking at the people hugging him, Ying Jie couldn’t help but complain: “Damn it, no matter what I pay, there is no prize money in this competition, I am exhausted!”

Having said that, there is no prize money in this competition, but there is the bonus of fame.

Countless media outlets are already preparing to report on this matter, and even CCTV’s platform has prepared an exclusive interview, because CCTV has reported on the mysterious online chess player Master several times before.

Ying Jie couldn’t even remember how many times he had been on CCTV? This is the appearance of the person himself. If Guang Lun mentions the name, the number is really countless.

After all, if you win any championship, win an important game, etc., the sports channels will read and report it.

Whether it is sports or any other field, being famous means having value. The news that Ying Jie is about to defeat artificial intelligence again will spread all over the country, and it is artificial intelligence that beats everyone except Ying Jie. !

Ying Jie proved that artificial intelligence cannot break through the field of Go. This gold content is beyond the imagination of many people.

As the public opinion incident ferments, Ying Jie’s fame will become more and more famous. Just last year’s man-machine war alone, I don’t know how many people asked Ying Jie to endorse this year, especially many products involving brain supplements, but Many of them were rejected by Ying Jie.

As the number one Go player in the world, Ying Jie’s pure commercial value may be higher than that of ordinary world competitions. After all, a competition may take more than half a year to win one million, while an endorsement may only take a day or two. You can get the money for taking photos when you have time.

Ying Jie also understood why so many people later wanted to become Internet celebrities or celebrities. It was so easy to get money.

Even if Ying Jie got acquainted with the outer circles, a celebrity whose name he had heard of but who was not very famous would earn money that a Go player could hardly imagine.

Unlike the lively Chinese Chess Academy, the Artificial Intelligence Company a few days later, Dr. Wang couldn’t help but pat his forehead and sighed.

“The reason is found…but this reason…”

The researcher next to him glanced at Dr. Wang lying on the chair and said helplessly.

Dr. Wang shook his head: “Let’s not talk about this anymore. Go over and report. We always have to report.”

“good……”

Mike, the CEO of the artificial intelligence company, looked at the report in his hand and then glanced at the two people standing in front of him: “Sit down and talk briefly about what the problem is.”

“This starts from the underlying logic. When the AI ​​is searching, it will randomly throw chess pieces on the chessboard for each step. But it is not completely random, but each legal landing point has a high probability of being hit. Low, the probability of being lost is given by the strategy network. After throwing a chess piece at the same time, the second step of the board is generated. At this time, the value network will give the winning rate of the second step of the board. If the board’s own side If the winning rate is higher, then slightly increase the probability that the first step corresponding to this board will be lost the next time a chess piece is lost. If the number of searches has not been completed, then continue to perform the same steps until the specified search is completed… …”

Hearing Dr. Wang’s eloquent words, Mike quickly waved his hand: “Dear Wang, you don’t need to introduce these things to me, you just need to tell me how to solve this bug. What we need is a solution to the matter, OK ?”

Dr. Wang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then sighed: “To put it simply, this is a problem inherent in the program itself. If we want to solve this BUG, ​​we have to overthrow the Master on the existing basis. , do it all over again.”

“Start over again? Start from scratch?”

When Mike heard this, he said something in disbelief. Does this mean that all the achievements so far have been in vain? Has all this time been wasted?

Dr. Wang quickly waved his hand: “It’s not in vain. Whether it’s the Master or the previous first-generation version, we already have enough experience. To put it simply, we already have a certain foundation. Even if we develop it from scratch, It’s not particularly difficult.”

“Do we have to start over from scratch? Simply put, we can’t run with this bug? Find another way to make up for this bug? Is it triggered randomly? Or is it triggered stably?”

Mike couldn’t help but issue a soul torture. After all, many programs have their own bugs, and sometimes even casual modifications may cause the entire program to crash. If the bug can be compensated for in other ways, it is not unacceptable.

After all, no program is perfect, as long as it works.

Dr. Wang couldn’t help but shook his head: “To put it simply, Ying Jie took advantage of the inability of AI to take into account breadth and depth, and created a special situation: there is only one global optimal point, and other local optimal points are used to mislead the search algorithm to waste. computing power.

It shows that AI will indeed cause omissions in a chaotic system with a “singularity”. But such an opportunity is also difficult to create. After all, in a normal game, the AI ​​with a small spoon will just give it to you. Even if it beats you by half an eye, it may not have a chance. Creating such a big spoon will make the AI ​​overturn, and it will not be able to move forward without chess skills. . “

Mike grasped this keyword very keenly: “But in other words, if you are strong enough, you can get out of this situation. Is that what you mean?”

“Yes, after testing, this is a stable trigger…”

Dr. Wang didn’t say anything. After all, this kind of thing is a fact. Covering it up is of no use. On the contrary, hiding it blindly may lead to worse consequences.

“At least Ying Jie can trigger this bug stably?”

Dr. Wang said with some helplessness: “It is estimated that those with ninth degree or reaching a certain level should be able to trigger it.”

To put it simply, although the Master is invincible and no one can beat him normally, but now he has a fatal cover.

Even people who can’t beat the Master can use this cover to walk the Master like a dog.

“I understand. You go out and wait for a while. I’ll make a call.”

Mike saw that the two people in charge lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him. He probably knew what was going on, but he couldn’t make the decision on this kind of thing, and he had to continue to report it to his superiors.

Dr. Wang and the two nodded after hearing this, and then sat outside the office and waited. The waiting was undoubtedly the most difficult. It only took less than five minutes, but Dr. Wang felt as if he had spent five hours. Same.

Looking at the secretary who invited him in and the boss who knocked on the table, Dr. Wang did not speak immediately, but waited for the CEO’s words.

“Except for this bug, there shouldn’t be any other problems with this system, right?”

When Dr. Wang heard what he said, he quickly said: “No, artificial intelligence still performs well in the most complex game of Go. It has basically achieved our expected goals. Only this problem has not been solved.”

“That’s good.”

Looking at Mike who nodded, Dr. Wang felt his heart slowly relax.

“Then the Alpha Dog project will be suspended for now.”

“ah?”

Dr. Wang was stunned when he heard this. If he didn’t say okay just now, why did he suddenly disappear?

“Mike, we can…”

“Wang, I know what you want to say, but you should also know the significance of our starting this project.”

Mike directly interrupted Dr. Wang’s explanation: “We want to test the ability of artificial intelligence to operate in complex environments, so we use Go as the test subject this time.

Go is just a testing ground for us. Now that the artificial intelligence has passed the test and achieved the score we want, there is no need to waste time on it and spend too much manpower and material resources.

You should understand that Go has no value and no commercial value. It is just an experimental container! We chose him just to help us advance the development of artificial intelligence. Now that he has done it, his historical value has been reached.

After completing the mission, we will naturally withdraw from the stage of history. We can no longer make a plate of dumplings because of the jealousy of Go. This is a loss-making business. You should understand this, Wang. “
