Human Go players learn from superhuman AIs

🗡️ Last year, we found superhuman Go AIs are vulnerable to “cyclic attacks”. This adversarial strategy was discovered by AI but replicable by humans. Below @KellinPelrine (⚪) gives the superhuman AI KataGo (⚫) a 9-stone handicap but still wins. See https://t.co/m97yFtvz0F pic.twitter.com/4VfgsJUS73

So: "Last year, we found superhuman Go AIs are vulnerable to “cyclic attacks”. This adversarial strategy was discovered by AI but replicable by humans."

Superhuman Go AIs discover a new region of the Go search-space. That's one thing. The fact that, once discovered, humans are able to exploit this region against a superhuman Go AI. That is just as interesting. 

One question we can ask about superintelligence is whether or not so-called superintelligent AIs can do things that are inherently and forever beyond human capacity. In this particular case, we have humans learning things initially discovered by AIs.
