AlphaGo Zero: Learning from scratch

The difference is a go AI can play billions of games and a simple 20 line C program can check, for each game, who won.

For "cat in the picture", every picture must have the cat first identified by a person, so the training set is much smaller, and Google can't throw GPUs at the problem.
