Machine Learning Techniques in Computer Chess

Go in some ways is seen as an even harder game than chess because it has an even larger branching factor that's the number of possible moves you can make any given position. We had a lot more trouble building good go programs using computer science technologies so we actually have now created a world champion go program will not me but deep mind which is funded partially by google or mostly by google and they're using machine learning techniques to do that. In computer chess machine learning techniques are also being used and they are being used in conjunction with some of the older techniques for computer chess that we'll talk about.
