AlphaGo wins first two Go matches against Lee Se-dol

Just a few minutes ago, the news broke that Google's computer-based player of Paduk, as it is known in Korea, or the Asian-style chess game known as  Go around the world, won the second match of their series. This matchup between machine or "artificial" intelligence (AI) and a human player is drawing a lot of attention around the world because of its implications for the future role of AI in a highly digitally networked environment.  Arirang Television carried a report on AlphaGo's victory in the first match.  I encourage you to view it.  More to come on this topic.
