After winning 3 matches in a row with the world champion of the game "Go" in best-of-five competition, Google's computer program, AlphaGo has won the competition.
This Chinese board game is considered to be a much more complex challenge for a computer than chess, and AlphaGo's wins were seen as a landmark moment for artificial intelligence. Go is a game of two players who take turns putting black or white stones on a 19-by-19 grid. Players win by surrounding their opponents pieces with their own.
