Ke Jie, a Chinese Go chess prodigy and the world's No.1 Go player, lost to Google's AlphaGo AI mid-game during their second match on Thursday.

The 19-year-old master began a best-of-three series against Google's artificial-intelligence-based Go system on Tuesday morning, during a week-long competition in the historic town of Wuzhen, east China's Zhejiang Province.

The dual was the latest contest between elite human Go players and AlphaGo, which has been developed by Google's DeepMind. The program defeated South Korean Go master Lee Se-dol 4-1 in March 2016.

Ke Jie dropped the first round of the best-of-three match on May 23, 2017.

The final game will take place on May 27.
