2016
The game was Go, between South Korean Lee Sedol and AlphaGo developed by DeepMind Technologies. Lee Sedol won the fourth game of the 5-game match, AlphaGo won the first three and the last. At the time Lee Sedol was one of the top two in the world in international titles. Six months earlier, in October 2015, the original AlphaGo in a match against 2-dan Fan Hui became the first computer Go program to beat a human professional Go player without handicap on a full-sized 19×19 board; the intensively developed and self-developed new AlphaGo beat the 9-dan Lee Sedol in March 2016 .
