AlphaGo didn’t just beat a Go champion, it rewrote the rules of competition. In this episode, host Emily Laird discusses Lee Sedol’s post-match arc, the rise of AlphaZero (a machine so next level it mastered three games in a day), and how that same AI playbook is coming for your office job. From coders and lawyers to journalists and teachers, the AlphaGo moment is already happening. But there’s hope, your creativity, your “Move 78,” still matters. Just don’t expect a standing ovation if you’re clinging to your typewriter.

In this episode, host Emily Laird continues her exploration of the 2016 Go showdown that shocked pros, spawned memes, and gave us two immortal moves: AlphaGo’s eerie, alien “Move 37” and Sedol’s legendary “God Move.” From overconfident predictions to existential gasps, we trace how a quiet Go board in Seoul turned into a global stage for the question: what happens when human intuition meets machine precision and loses?
