No offense at all taken by your words. I only meant to say that I
have had personal experience with how reporters and journalists
turn what they hear into what they write. It is my opinion that
we could try very hard to "fix our words" and they will either
change them back or make up something even more dramatic.
Cheers,
David

David,
I didn't intend to offend any person in this list, sorry for short
of my words. I'm just trying to prevent people misunderstand the

It is of no consequence what words WE use to describe this.
Journalists
will ALWAYS print it that way. If you use too many big words or ideas
that are accurate but convoluted, you will either not get the
publicity
or the journalist will make up something even more absurd.
Sorry if I am a bit over sensitive ... getting misquoted, my work
ignored,
and getting credit for the work of others in this past week has me
very
aware of how these people work. They are on a deadline and meeting
the
deadline with a headline that captures a lay reader's attention is
the
only
priority. I know how my attempts to get a correction were greeted ...
Cheers,

Hi all,
I'd like to say first "Congratulations!" to MoGo team.
I have a question. Why do you all call the game as "human vs.
computer"? It's obviously a match between Kim 8p and MoGo, a
program
developped by MoGo team, running on a supercomputer.
As both MoGo and the supercomputer were developped by human, the
game
is clearly (a special type of) human vs. human.
I'm afraid it may raise unnecessary emotional thoughts of against
computers among people. It might be better to call such a game
something of a style "a professinal Goplayer vs. a program with its
developper(s)" to emphasize the program was created by human.
