AlphaGo shows AI competition heating up
AlphaGo defeated the human GO champion Ke Jie, signifying the progress of human technology. Our journalist commented:

China is doing well in AI research. But the problem is that only a few of the research results have been put into practical use. China has many talented and hard-working researchers. It also has excellent entrepreneurs who strive to make breakthroughs in different fields. The need therefore is to link the two so that path-breaking research can be used to make innovative products.
