Chinese Go Player Gets One-year Ban For Using AI During National Competition

The Chinese Weiqi Association has issued a statement suspending a Chinese player from attending competitions of weiqi, more commonly known as Go overseas, for a year after he violated the "no use of AI" rules when participating in a national chess competition earlier that day. From a report: According to the statement, Go player Liu Ruizhi used an AI program during the first round of the Chinese professional Go Championship preliminaries, and his supervisors did not fulfill their supervisory responsibilities. The authority pronounced Liu's opponent Yin Qu the winner of the match and decided to suspend Liu from participating in professional competitions until March 15, 2023. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, competitions have been held online and the organizing committee requires each player to have a supervisor during matches. According to the rules of the competition, the use of AI is strictly prohibited during competitions. Players who break this rule will be banned for one year. If the player is a member of the national training team, they will be expelled from the team immediately.
