Life In 19x19 :: Predict AlphaGo on Future of Go Summit in Wuzhen, China

Don't belittle Koreans by making outrageous claims.
Chinese president thinks that a part of Korea was their district.
Go way way back and beyond the west and north from Paekdu mountain used to be the land of Goguryu empire. Yet Chinese are changing history just like the Japanese to hide facts and educating their young generation with bogus story no other countries agree on.
These egocentric teachings of China and Japan must stop or they'll think the whole part of Asia is theirs.
Believe me or not Korea is an homogeneous nation unlike China and Japan.
That tells a lot about why they in group moved to settle in Korean peninsula.
Chinese think that all Asians came from China which is a total nonsense.
Chinese are mixed groups of clans that united whether voluntarily or not, in a single big mass of land. There's no single origin or identity of Chinese because of this. Mixed people tend to be more violent and problematic compared to pure blooded. Just look and compare any dogs that are half breed and pure bred. That tells a lot about what's going on with today's conflicts around the world.
Go was also said to be originated in China which maybe true but it's not a chinese game. There's not even a single record of any chinese ancestor inventing the game. You go way way back and only Korea has more simplest form of Go game on record and baduk the word is distinct from China and Japan.
Weichi and Igo both meaning either a surrounding stone or surrounding sound of wood. But Koreans call it baduk because it originated from rice field and that how it is shaped a big square with lines going across vertically and horizontally.
Korean language is another unique and original which can't be traced back to any ancient language. This makes it more puzzling as to who ancient Koreans were. Only Chinese and Japanese hate most of these facts because they feel primitive and shallow to the long culture of Korea.

Koreans, and specifically the Kims, are responsible for all that is good and quite possibly creation itself. Did you know that Jesus was Korean, and so was Confucius? Koreans also invented anime, video games, Chinese characters, the game of Go, automobiles, telescopes, stethoscopes, microscopes, bowling, rowing, pawnshops, tampons, harpoons, cartoons, the printing press, pizza, jeans, airplanes, microchips, gun powder, etc. The list is inexhaustible. The very few things that are not of Korean origin are Samsung batteries and Cho Seung-Hui (of the Virginia Tech massacre fame). Inexplicably, Koreans try to distance themselves from Mr. Cho Seung-Hui, a towering martyr of anti-imperialist struggle. In any event, I had a nice pasta dinner today, and I thanked the Koreans for inventing pasta; without pasta, I would have had to subsist on overboiled English cabbage.

Confucius was a patronising Nazi. All that stuff about "follow me, i'm the big daddy". Yecch! Give me Lao-Tse any day.

Lao-Tse was Korean too, by the way, and quite possibly related to the Kims. And what's wrong with following Confucius? We all should be so lucky to follow such a famous Korean philosopher and wise man. We non-Koreans are mere blades of grass, and Koreans are the sun. We owe our existence to the Koreans. It doesn't matter if it's Kim Jong-il, Kim Jong-un, Kim-Chee, Park In-ho, Bum Suk-ho, Moon Kee-boi, Suk poo-dong, Cho Kong-kok, Ho Bum-leek, so long the person is Korean, we must follow him or her without questioning.

I suggest move all posts from #13 onward to a new thread in Off-Topic called "Ramblings on Korea" or some-such. Agree?

In this news http://sports.sina.com.cn/go/2017-05-12 ... 4772.shtml Meng Tailing 6p suggest Ke Jie to stop looking for AI weakness and play in his usual style. This confirm that Ke Jie has been train under AI-specific program for a while (his losing streak against FineArt maybe one of his experiment) and it might affect his results against human recently.

Meng is wrong; Ke Jie is right. You can't beat her at her own game, you have to probe beneath the surface. The dog does have weaknesses, although finding them is harder for her than for most opps. based on how she works, i'm guessing one of them is a lack of positional judgment, compensated for by extraordinary reading ability. We will see

One more week to go, DeepMind team on the way to China (I don't know if they arrived at the airport like celebrity like what happened in Seoul), while many Chinese pro are estimating Ke Jie 9p chance Yu Zhiying 5p, the highest ranked Chinese female player gave Ke Jie 30% chance against AlphaGo Gu Li 9p said if Ke Jie play with his 100%, he will get 5% chance against AlphaGo Nie Wieping 9p simply said AlphaGo has 100% win chance Ke Jie gets a lot of advice from his pro friends. He said this is the fight to death, there's no winrate, lost is 100% lost, win is 100% win Also, don't forget to vote! AlphaGo version was frozen two weeks before the real match (may be to test if it's working correctly on big machine)

Ke Jie has 30% chance to win, if he receives 3 stones handicap.
