Wow! I knew the Ke Jie vs AlphaGo would come one day, and probably the human team vs AlphaGo, but didn't expect the "Pair Go" (human + AlphaGo vs another human + AlphaGo). Interesting to see.

Centaur chess has been a thing since Deep Blue. I think the problem their future of ai stuff is having is most orgs have no idea which of their zillion problems actually needs this tech. Hopefully this will raise more awareness.

In Centaur chess, the human gets to consult the AI. In Pair Go, there is only alternating play, with no other form of communication, leaving the human guessing at the AI's plans.

I thought people stopped doing Centaur chess when it turned out that human+computer usually loses to computer alone.

There are still positions that people evaluate correctly but computers misjudge, but those are pretty rare.

That's because Ke Jie was already beaten 3-0 by AlphaGo [1]. The new set-up will definitely be more interesting to watch.
