AlphaDev is an artificial intelligence system developed by Google DeepMind to discover enhanced computer science algorithms using reinforcement learning.AlphaDev is based on AlphaZero, a system that mastered the games of chess, shogi and go by self-play.
On August 10, 2015, Google announced plans to create a new public holding company, Alphabet Inc. Google co-founder and CEO Larry Page made this announcement in a blog post on Google's official blog.

In each case it made use of custom tensor processing units (TPUs) that the Google programs were optimized to use. [2] AlphaZero was trained solely via self-play using 5,000 first-generation TPUs to generate the games and 64 second-generation TPUs to train the neural networks , all in parallel , with no access to opening books or endgame tables .
Google later developed AlphaZero, a generalized version of AlphaGo Zero that could play chess and Shōgi in addition to Go. [7] In December 2017, AlphaZero beat the 3-day version of AlphaGo Zero by winning 60 games to 40, and with 8 hours of training it outperformed AlphaGo Lee on an Elo scale .

[28] The match used Chinese rules with a 7.5-point komi, and each side had two hours of thinking time plus three 60-second byoyomi periods. [29] The version of AlphaGo playing against Lee used a similar amount of computing power as was used in the Fan Hui ...
The game earned her national recognition and she began holding workshops for kids, many of them at Google. 10-year-old Samaira Mehta has become a kid coder to watch in Silicon Valley. When she was ...
Hash Code was a global team programming competition organized by Google.
