‘AlphaGo’ beats humans, and ‘AlphaGo Zero’ beats ‘AlphaGo’, heralding that machines look going to surpass humans in ‘intelligence’ … We admire DeepMind, London, now part of Google, which kicked off the current wave of AI. At i4AI, London, we are developing computational AI technology to surpass a human designer in innovation and creativity, just like AlphaGo Zero to have surpassed AlphaGo and humans in Go playing. “Although fabrication of the chips is largely automated, the design still relies on manual processes. Engineers and designers use computer-aided design software, but it can still take them weeks or months to work out how to fit all the components into the available space. Google’s researchers have now shown that the process can be completed in less than a day by using artificial intelligence (AI).” — Nature, EDITORIAL 09 June 2021
