ParrotGo

   

Conventional wisdom is that a parrot can learn to play go at a strength of around 29 kyu.

Is this rumor supported in any publications?

Do any game records exist of games by animals?

If this claim has not been documented, let this page put the rumor to rest.

--

This claim is largely unsubstantiated and dismissed by leading animal-go researchers.

However, it is generally accepted that if you give an infinite number of monkeys an infinite supply of go equipment, one will eventually play like a pro.
