终极人机大战天才少年柯洁下月迎战'阿尔法狗'（打印版）

　　It's just over a year since Google's DeepMind unit stunned the world when its AlphaGo AI beat Go legend Lee Se-dol 4-1 in a five-game match; the result demonstrated mastery of a feat that had eluded computer scientists for decades and sparked a flood of new interest in the field of artificial intelligence.

　　一年之前，谷歌旗下DeepMind团队研发的“阿尔法狗”出人意料地以4比1的比分击败了韩国围棋冠军李世石，这一结果证明计算机科学家们掌解决了几十年来所面临的难题，也引起了人们对人工智能领域的兴趣与关注。

　　But there was one possible "gotcha" that Go devotees could hold onto: Lee Se-dol was once, but is no longer, quite considered the greatest player on the planet.

　　但是围棋爱好者仍在坚持的一种可能性是：李世石曾经是，但现在已经不是世界上最厉害的围棋选手了。

　　That distinction is now considered to belong to Ke Jie, a 19-year-old Chinese player ranked number 1 worldwide.

　　目前，世界排名第一这一荣誉属于19岁的中国棋手柯洁。

　　A professional since the age of ten, Ke has beaten Lee several times in high-profile matches in recent years, including three finals victories in the three months leading up to Lee's AlphaGo match.

　　柯洁从10岁开始就成为了一名职业围棋选手。在近几年的知名比赛中，柯洁曾先后多次打败李世石。在李世石与“阿尔法狗”大赛前三个月中，柯洁曾在三次总决赛中战胜李世石。

　　And next month, Ke will get his own showdown with DeepMind's AI.

　　下个月，柯洁将与DeepMind团队的人工智能一教高下。

　　At the Future of Go Summit in Wuzhen, China, Ke will face off against AlphaGo in a three-game match.

　　在即将举办的“中国乌镇·围棋峰会”中，柯洁将与“阿尔法狗”展开三番对决。

　　Another game will see five of China's top pros attempt to team up to take down AlphaGo, while another will see a pro-vs-pro match where each player alternates turns with an AlphaGo teammate.

　　在团队赛中，五位中国顶尖职业棋手将试图组队以对抗人工智能；而在另一组比赛中，棋手将分别与“阿尔法狗”组队合作比赛。

　　After its comprehensive victory over Lee, AlphaGo will be the favorite for the match with Ke, who recently lost a few unofficial online games against the AI.

　　在大胜李世石之后，“阿尔法狗”和柯洁成为最为热门的对手。最近，柯洁曾在几场非官方的网上游戏中败给了“阿尔法狗”。

　　But whatever happens, the wider variety of game formats this time will give some fascinating insights into how the AI performs in different situations. How will it react to taking on multiple play styles at once? And what will humans be able to learn about their own capabilities?

　　但无论怎样，本次比赛多样化的形式能使人们从更多的角度认识人工智能。“阿尔法狗”会如何应对多种风格的比赛？人类又能从中学到什么？

　　The Future of Go Summit is a collaboration between Google, the China Go Association, and the Chinese government, and will also include a forum on the future of artificial intelligence that we can likely expect Google to use as an opportunity to check in on the technology's progress.

　　“中国乌镇·围棋峰会”由谷歌公司、中国围棋协会和中国政府三方联合举办，届时还将举办讨论人工智能未来发展的论坛。谷歌公司将有望利用这次机会介绍人工智能所取得的进展。

　　此次峰会将于5月23日至5月27日之间举行。
