How true is this?
"If that sounds far-fetched, consider this:
A few weeks ago a robot called AlphaZero
taught itself how to play chess in four hours – then
it beat a grandmaster with moves never seen in the game’s history."
"The robot was given the rules and
instructed to learn how to win by playing against itself.
In doing so it amassed centuries of chess knowledge and
tactics then went on to surpass all previous human ingenuity in the game."

RE: "it beat a grandmaster with moves never seen in the game’s history."
This is something extremely unremarkable.
Virtually every game has moves never seen in the game's history.
As for teaching itself to play chess in 4 hours, that is believable. The compute horsepower given to the learning engine is astronomical.

In a sense, it didn't teach itself to play chess; it was told all the rules, and then I guess you know “how to play chess”. However, went from there to playing really, really good chess by itself, in four hours. Assuming you count wall clock and not combined computing time.

It can be interesting ?!

yes, but it doesn't matter if the content is senseful, and he does raise some pertinent points.

Actually the guy could get some legal problems if he really is from Germany and invents such a "university" :-) In the US, however, I think everyone can found a "university". I recall some christian "university", where a phD thesis started with the words "Hi, my name is Bob." :-)
he analyses the 10 games a0-sf with sf8, but only at depth ~20-25 (4 cores)
this paper is just bogus.
