Several
years ago Google's AI, known as DeepMind, learned to play the
strategic game "Go" and beat the world champion Go player.
The AI program called "AlphaGo" has since been playing
against itself, developing moves and strategies that expert Go
players are still trying to understand. The moves this AI has been
making have been described as totally alien, as if knowledge from the
far future has been dropped on earth, much of which is still being
analyzed as experts are attempting to comprehend it. The AI is doing
things that Go players have never done, even doing things that they
thought were bad moves or mistakes yet turned out to be brilliant in
the end. Sometimes even its opening moves are so confounding that
players and analysts have given up trying to understand it--it's so
bizarre and seemingly senseless. Yet the AI continues to win...
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
