　　Hangzhou is already the third stop of this man-machine peak showdown.

In the past two weeks, "Yuanrui" played against four masters in Shanghai and Shenzhen respectively, and achieved three wins and one draw in four rounds.

　　Compared with the well-known Go artificial intelligence AlphaGo, the most obvious difference between "Yuanrui SenseRobot" is that it is a physical robot that can be placed on a desk.

According to Shangtang Technology, from observing the changes of the chess game, to calculating the moves, and then to taking the chess moves, all these are carried out by the "Yuanrui SenseRobot" AI chess-playing robot alone.

It sets up 26 levels of difficulty for Chinese chess to compete against human chess players face-to-face with "hand-eye coordination".

　　The human chess player who played at the Hangzhou Station is the chess grandmaster Zhao Xinxin, who is the chess world champion Grand Slam winner.

This time, he played two games and challenged Yuan radish's strongest chess skill to level 26.

　　In the first round of the duel, Zhao Xinxin took the red lead and started with the middle gun.

"Yuan radish" held the black and responded with the gun. The changes of the two sides tended to be routine, and the middle game formed a big exchange.

In the end, Zhao Xinxin made peace, and "Yuanrui" agreed.

　　In the second round of duel, Zhao Xinxin gave the red side first, "Yuan radish" played black for the first time, and started the game with a fixed chess path against the screen horse, and the situation remained stable.

In the middle game, the "Yuan radish" side soldiers advanced rapidly, posing a threat to the red side horses, but there was not much investment in the attack, and soon an exchange situation was formed.

In the end, the two sides shook hands again and made peace.

　　Zhao Xinxin said after the game that "Yuan radish" is truly a teacher and a friend, a master chess player who can accompany him at any time, which was unimaginable before.

　　In addition to the regular games, the "Human-Machine War" at the Hangzhou Station also set up a special session in which three generations of the grandparents and grandchildren of a chess family joined forces to play "Yuanrui".

　　Chen Hanfeng is a chess grandmaster and chess coach; his father, Chen Xinyuan, has achieved good results in chess competitions organized by Jiaxing City many times;

The three chess players played against the 14th level of "Yuanrui".

After the situation was changed several times, in the end "Yuan Rui" and the chess family ended in a draw.

　　"It's very enjoyable to play with 'Yuanrui', and its 'AI support one move' function can help players make choices very well, giving people a feeling of sudden inspiration." The three players said after the game.
