Local tech majors mine data to develop top online games

BEIJING - China's mobile app major Tencent is demonstrating its ability in gaming through "Jueyi", its own version of DeepMind's Alpha Go in Japan.

Jueyi won all 11 of its matches in a field of about 30 entrants, beating the eventual runner-up - Japan's DeepZenGo - twice along the way.

The company will use the techniques it's learned to teach its games to put up a better fight - addressing, among other things, a longstanding complaint of expert players.
