谷歌高層造訪中國棋院 柯潔稱目前無法戰勝AlphaGo

Google's top executives have met with China's best Go players.

日前，谷歌的高管們與中國最好的圍棋手們碰面了。

Google CEO Sundar Pichai and co-founder Sergey Brin met some of the board game's best players last Tuesday at the headquarters of the Chinese Go Association.

谷歌首席執行官桑達爾·皮查伊和聯合創始人謝爾蓋·布林上週二造訪中國圍棋協會總部，與一些圍棋大師們會面。

Google's Sina Weibo account posted several pictures of the meeting that included world champion Nie Weiping, and Yu Bin, head of the Chinese Go team.

從谷歌的新浪微博賬號發佈的數張圖片中可以看到，世界冠軍聶衛平和中國圍棋隊總教練餘斌參加了此次會面。

The visit puts Google's computer program AlphaGo back in the spotlight. Last month Demis Hassabis, the father of AlphaGo, said that AlphaGo will resume playing early next year, but he didn't reveal who and where AlphaGo will play.

此次造訪令谷歌的計算機程序AlphaGo重回公衆視線。"AlphaGo之父"德米斯·哈薩比斯上個月表示，AlphaGo將於明年初再出戰，但沒有透露對手以及對戰的地點。

The program gained worldwide fame when it went head-to-head with South Korean professional Go player Lee Se-dol in March. AlphaGo won 4:1.

今年3月，AlphaGo與韓國職業圍棋手李世石正面交鋒，因此蜚聲世界。最終AlphaGo以4比1獲勝。

Chinese world No 1 player Ke Jie is rumored to be AlphaGo's next challenger. Ke, who is playing a professional game in Guizhou, was a no-show at the meeting.

有傳言稱AlphaGo的下一個對手將是世界排名第一的中國棋手柯潔。柯潔正在貴州參加一項職業比賽，所以沒有出席週二的會面。

"I don't think I can beat AlphaGo now," Ke said after he won the Samsung Cup World Open Baduk Championship on December 8. "I need more practice."

在12月8日贏下三星杯世界圍棋錦標賽之後，柯潔表示：“我不認爲我現在能夠擊敗AlphaGo，我還需要更多的磨練。”
