Go is said to be more complicated (the number of move is much more) than shogi.

Therefore, it has been said that computer couldn't defeat human champion for a while (future than shogi).

However, Go AI (Artificial Intelligence) "Alpha Go" made by Google defeated Korean top player Lee Sedol on March this year, and many people were surprised because it was so early than expected.
