Another instance of AI usage would be computing power in strategic games such as chess or the popular Asian game Go. The recent breakthrough achieved by Google’s company allowed it to beat the number one GO player in the world – something a computer has never done before. Go isn’t the only field where AI shines – by the end of 2017 it has also beaten the world’s best chess engine – Stockfish.

Classical board games are not where AI stops – back in August 2017 it has also gained victory over the world’s best Dota 2 player (Dota 2 is one of the most popular Real Time Strategy games). All of these victories show that AI is able to develop something better than human intuition – a milestone that still is virtually impossible for classical algorithms. This only proves that we are standing literally on the brink of a new era, one marked by the dominance of artificial intelligence and the potential that comes with it.

There are several other examples of how AI is already implemented in today’s world. There’s no doubt that trend is only going to grow. It’s an extremely promising field that’s already revolutionizing our lives.
