South Korean Go master Lee Se-Dol recently announced his retirement from professional Go competition. He felt that no matter how hard he tries, he will never beat AI Go players like AlphaGo. The defeat of human Go players to AI is neither the end of the world for the Go game nor for the human players. Go is not created to see who is the best, it is created for educational purposes. To understand why, we need to go back to the original purpose Go game is invented for. It’s said that Emperor Yao invented the game to teach his naughty son.
