AGZ   AZ   epi   beyond  

AlphaGo Zero

  • AlphaGo Zero

  • what we don't know

    • how many machines (and what hardware) did DM train AGZ on ?

    • DM explains many details of AGZ architecture, but parameter tuning is critical in neural net training and performance

    • did AGZ use (perhaps to start) AG neural net parameter values ? if yes, is it fair to say that AGZ learns tabula rasa ?

AlphaZero

epilogue

  • DeepMind story: right place, right time

  • Demi Hassabis, David Silver, Aja Huang, …

  • people + machines + MCTS + DCNN
