There seems to be a mismatch between the headline and the article itself. I see this quite often, and I think it is often due to headlines being written by editors, or even editorial assistants.

The author's choice of examples, featuring a counter-example prominently, seems odd - perhaps it is to capitalize on the interest in AlphaGo Zero. The article is something of an anachronism, in that it would have worked better immediately after Deep Blue (or even after Watson/Jeopardy).
