From the short description, it looks like a project from Google about training a deep network to play the game. The resulting bot was quite strong (or at least, quite strong for not using Monte Carlo tree search, at least). Without any more details though, it's hard to tell.

Do you have a link for the Google thing?

Here is the paper for Google's DNN-based move evaluation in Go: http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~cmaddis/pubs/deepgo.pdf

Very cool. I wrote a Go playing game for the Apple II which I sold.

I have recently become interested, again, in Go programming. I have started setting up a framework for using GnuGo to generate training data for a deep learning network. I am starting with a tiny 7x7 board just to see if the general approach works.

If it works (at all) then I will post the entire project to github.

There is something captivating about watching two master-AI's battling it out on the Go board, it's almost Art in a way ;)

Facebook's AI lab will probably reveal more technical details at NIPS 2015. Here's the workshop on Reasoning, Attention, Memory (RAM) they are organizing that will seek to address some of the challenges around advancing from classification and prediction tasks to simple cognition:
