It challenged the world39。s top players to show how much progress it had made over the past few years. In late May, 2017, AlphaGo appeared in China and played against 19yearold Ke Jie in Wuzhen, China. He is No. 1 player now in the world. However, the result wasn39。t out of people39。s expectation.

Ke Jie got kind of angry and told him that it was unnecessary for two Chinese to speak in English. The reporter apologized to him and offered to ask him for a coffee.
