What it says

How long would it take an AI to beat you at chess, starting from zero? Four hours.
December 2017. DeepMind's AlphaZero got only the rules. No openings, no human games.
It played itself, millions of games. Four hours in, it passed the strongest chess engine in the world.
Then it beat that engine: twenty-eight wins, seventy-two draws, zero losses.
It looked at eighty thousand positions a second. The engine looked at seventy million.
What could you learn in four hours?
