Late on Tuesday night, Google’s DeepMind AI group will face down against one of the world’s best human Go players, Lee Se-dol of South Korea. The game will be streamed live on YouTube (of course), which is embedded at the end of this story.
There will be five matches in total between AlphaGo (DeepMind’s Go-playing software) and Lee, all played at the Four Seasons hotel in Seoul over the next few days. The first match begins at 1pm local time on March 9, which equates to 4am GMT, or 11:00pm (March 8) EST if you happen to live on the east coast of the US. Each match should last more than four hours, so you might be able to catch the end of the match in the UK if you wake up early.
The winner of the series will win a $ 1 million (£700,000) prize—but if DeepMind wins, it will donate the proceeds to charity. Lee, by virtue of being a champion prizefighter who has spent most of his life honing his Go skills, will also get about £100,000 just for turning up and £15,000 for each match that he wins.
