The Historic Baduk Match I'm not sure if it's well-known to the rest of the world, but there has been a huge Baduk match in Korea a few days ago. I'm also not sure how many people in the world know of the game "Baduk," because it's something that's popular in East Asia, for the most part. I don't even know what they call the game in Western world, so I'll just call it Baduk in my writing. Anyway, Google offered Lee Sedol, who has been the best Baduk player for about a decade, to have a match with AlphaGo, the AI program Google developed. Whoever won the three games first would get a billion dollars for a prize. Long story short, He has lost to AlphaGo, being defeated three games in a row. The AI was a lot greater than expected. Once his defeat became official, the match turned into something where he battle with himself, not with Alphago. Against all odds, he managed to win the fourth game. I don't know first thing about Baduk, but I can tell that his look looks mighty professional when he was figuring out where to put the next piece while playing.

The Historic Baduk Match

I'm not sure if it's well-known to the rest of the world, but there was  has been a huge Baduk match in Korea a few days ago. I'm also not sure how many people in the world know of the game "Baduk," because it's something that's popular in East Asia, for the most part.

>but it's a game that is popular in many countries in East Asia.


I don't even know what they call the game in the Western world, so I'll just call it Baduk in my writing.

Anyway, Google offered Lee Sedol, who has been the best Baduk player for about a decade, to have a match with AlphaGo,an the AI program Google developed.

 

Note> You can offer to do something. You can offer a thing or a service. But you can't offer that someone else do something. Google offered Lee a chance to have a match with...

I offer you to go there /I offer you to have a game with me XX > I offer you a game with me/ I offer to help you

>the AI program Google developed> You mean Google has this and only this program?

 

Whoever won the three games first would get a million dollars for a in prize money

>Whoever was the first to win 3 games would get ...

 

Long story short, he has lost to AlphaGo:he was defeated three games in a row. / he was defeated in 3 consecutive games.

 

The AI was a lot greater stronger than ( all of us) expected.

 

Once his defeat became official, the match turned into something where he battle with himself, not with Alphago.??

>If his defeat is officially announced , it means it over !

 

Once his defeat became imminent , the match became purely academic as he tried to battle for some pride in the defeat -- the battle is more with himself than with AlphaGo.

 

But ,against all odds, he managed to win the fourth game. I don't know a  first thing about Baduk, but I can tell you that his he looked  looks mighty very professional/ impressive when he was figuring out where to put the next piece while playing. > when he was considering his moves during the game.

The game 'Baduk' is called as 'Go' in Western culture. I've heard of this news even two times on BBC news. It may be something in the rest of the world except East Asia.
