Fujii becomes 2nd player in shogi history with 7 major titles

Every 100 years or so a prodigy comes along. Babe Ruth in baseball, Bobby Fischer in chess, and, now, Sota Fujii in shogi. Air Force pilots and commercial pilots use flight simulators, so his usage of AI to level up is by no means unfair whatsoever. While I can play piano, guitar, drums, clarinet and sing 5 octave range, I also use synthesizers and software to perfect my unique sound. I like this to Fujii's utilization of AI. Math doesn't lie, be it in shogi, money ball, stock trading or music. Fujii is a genius and we are lucky to have NHK televise his shogi matches. Shogi is too cerebral for most expats here, but for those of us who get it, it is a very intriguing, addictive and intelligent game.

Great news in a time of gloom
