In light of the incredible success of AlphaZero in mastering chess FROM SCRATCH in four hours (arxiv.org/abs/1712.01815), here is a quick tutorial on taking down our future robot overlords: youtube.com/watch?v=mQ8sFR…

One of the strongest simple arguments for basic research I've ever seen. It doesn't sugar-coat complexity nor does it overhype outcomes, but it does convey I do all day, and why it's important. youtube.com/watch?v=9hPIob…
