This isnt the first game-playing A.I. program. IBM supercomputer Deep Blue defeated world chess champion Garry Kasparov in 1997. In 2011, an artificial intelligence computer system named Watson won a game of Jeopardy against champions Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter.
Watson and Deep Blue were great achievements, but those computers were loaded with all the chess moves and trivia knowledge they could handle, Hassabis said in a news conference Tuesday. Essentially, they were trained, he explained.
But in this experiment, designers didnt tell DQN how to win the games. They didnt even tell it how to play or what the rules were, Hassabis said.
"It's now better at playing the game than any human. It has perfectly modelled this complex stream," Hassabis said at the time.
