Artificial intelligence technology will have a very strong future impact on how we know the world.

The best companies prepared for the race to artificial intelligence technology are Google, Apple, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft. It is not known who will win this race, but the winner will be strongly compensated.

One of the most amazing examples of AI applications is the AlphaGo program developed by Google DeepMind from Alphabet Inc. in London. AlphaGo is a computer program with artificial intelligence techniques with the ability to play Go (board game).

In October 2015, AlphaGo was AI's first program to beat a professional human opponent playing on a 19 x 19 board. Later, in March 2016, AlphaGo defeated professional Lee Sedol in a 5-game match. It was the first to see a computer beat a 9 dan professional without handicaps, despite losing to Lee Sedol in the fourth game, champion Lee admitted defeat in the last game, getting the result 4 games to 1 in favor of AlphaGo. The Korea Baduk Association awarded AlphaGo with the 9-dan honorario.

In the 2017 Future of Go Summit, AlphaGo defeated Ke Jie, the No. 1 player in the world rankings at the time, in a three-game match. After that, AlphaGo was awarded the professional 9-dan by the Chinese Weiqi Association. After the match between AlphaGo and Ke Jie, AlphaGo retired while DeepMind continued AI research in other areas.

AlphaGo uses a Monte Carlo tree search algorithm to find its movements based on the knowledge "learned" by machine learning, specifically by an artificial neural network (a deep learning method) by extensive training, both of humans and computers.

A neural network is trained to predict AlphaGo's own motion selections and also the winner's games. This neural network improves the strength of tree research, resulting in higher quality movement selection and greater self-reproduction in the next iteration. Beginning tabula rasa, its new AlphaGo Zero program achieved superhuman performance, winning by 100-0 against the previously announced AlphaGo.
