You appear to be completely missing the point of my root comment, which is that AlphaGo’s tech isn’t nearly as general as it’s made out to be, even if you stick to Go.

> AlphaGo can play very well on a 19x19 board but actually has to be retrained to play on a rectangular board.

It doesn’t even generalize to the same game with a different board shape. Whereas a human Go master could easily do so.

DeepMind is essentially hacking the common usage of the word “general” in order so that they can make claims about “general” intelligence. And it’s working!
