I’m now curios, can a human design a game that a computer can not beat a human at.

This reduces down to the question of whether it's possible to simulate a brain (or an equivalent formulation, such as is consciousness somehow extraphysical). I believe I'm right in saying current consensus says that this is possible.

Theoretically possible, but so far nobody has done it, or knows how to...

The Turing Test game? (For now at least)

Just put a scoreboard on captcha.

I think alpha zero can self-train to mastery or super-human performance at any two player game with perfect information?

I’d be curious to know if that’s incorrect ...

I'd love to see a blinded Dixit competition between humans and AI, judged by humans. Of course, humans and AI could get an advantage by playing lots of Dixit. But if the cards are generated specifically for that competition, things could get quite interesting.

Maybe something like Nomic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomic

Also, relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1002/

This hasn't been true since 2015, when the software became decisively stronger than human players.

Actually humans are now able to defeat the bot that won the Arimaa challenge. In games like this: http://arimaa.com/arimaa/games/jsShowGame.cgi?gid=628806&s=w

However, there is also a new bot that has been trained using the self play method and has been crushing the bot that won the Arimaa challenge. In games like this: http://arimaa.com/arimaa/games/jsShowGame.cgi?gid=628534&s=b

Most likely the bots are still ahead.

calvinball?
