AlphaGo versus Fan Hui was a five-game Go match between European champion Fan Hui, a 2-dan (out of 9 dan possible) professional, and AlphaGo, a computer Go program developed by DeepMind, held at DeepMind's headquarters in London in October 2015.[1] AlphaGo won all five games.[2][3] This was the first time a computer Go program had beaten a professional human player on a full-sized board without handicap.[4] This match was not disclosed to the public until 27 January 2016 to coincide with the publication of a paper in the journal Nature[5] describing the algorithms AlphaGo used.[2]
Fan described the program as "very strong and stable, it seems like a wall. ... I know AlphaGo is a computer, but if no one told me, maybe I would think the player was a little strange, but a very strong player, a real person."[6]
