ne article described Deep Blue’s victory not as that of a computer, which was just a dumb machine, but as the victory of hundreds of programmers over Kasparov, a single individual. That way of programming is changing dramatically. After a long hiatus, the power of machine learning has taken off. Much of th

So when machines did amazing things like beating world chess champion Garry Kasparov, we could say that the victorious programs were designed with algorithms based on our own understanding—using, in this instance, the experience and a
