AI finally beats the world's best Stratego players

Original: With most information hidden, the game Stratego had stumped AI until now

Researchers have built an AI system that can beat top human players at Stratego, a board game long considered a major challenge for artificial intelligence because almost all information about the opponent's pieces is hidden. Unlike chess or Go, success requires bluffing, imperfect-information reasoning, and long-term planning. Reports note the system achieved this on a relatively modest computing budget, and the milestone is drawing comparisons to earlier AI breakthroughs in chess, Go and poker.

Why now: An AI beating elite humans at a hidden-information game is a notable milestone in the field of imperfect-information game research.
