Go (the game). I wrote a clone of AlphaGo in Go (the programming language) 8 years ago. Along the way I learned to play Go.
I've been using a combination of my own AI, LeelaZero and KataGo to teach myself in Go. For 8 years I've languished at the same level of play. Then I met a real human teacher who taught me Go at the end of 2023. And since then my game improved. I beat my own AI (which was intentionally trained to be impoverished in skill) for the first time in January.
Learning Go is teaching me all sorts of new ideas in pedagogy and putting a dampener in any enthusiasm that involves LLMs in education.
