Also, they aren't merely wrapping engineering around existing science
and putting existing things together, but invented several new methods
too. So, of course they are standing on the shoulders of giants, and
the massive computational resources of Google had been a lot of help,
but I'd say there is a fair amount of originality in the AlphaGo
research, scientifically.
