Can the AI be beat?

Do you think the AI will ever be beaten?

I am optimistic. It happened once. Go is vast enough that even Alphago can't brute force calculate out every possible future... which means it must play based on a conception of things within a given paradigm, which is hard coded into it by a person. As ...

general flow of the game questions

So, as a beginner with poor understanding of the game, my games have fallen into a predictable and boring pattern; do 4 josekis that I have largely memorized, build out sides for the next 15 to 20 moves, then invade somewhere so I can get a big wall and work off of that.

reading out tsumego

Hi all, I have been putting in an effort to really get my tsumego in on a daily basis, and I've been using beartsumego, badukpop, forest of tsumego, and gogrinder.
