GOOGLE'S computer program AlphaGo on Saturday took a 3-0 lead as it won the third consecutive game in a historic five-game match with South Korean Lee Sedol, the world's champion of the ancient Chinese board game.

After exchanging 176 moves for more than four hours with AlphaGo, a computer program developed by Google's London-based artificial intelligence (AI) subsidiary DeepMind, Lee resigned from the match as the computer program maintained an unassailable lead.

It marked the third consecutive victory of AlphaGo in the five-game match, which kicked off on Wednesday and will last until next Tuesday. The next game will be held on Sunday in Seoul.

About US$1 million in prize will be given to AlphaGo's developer, which will donate it to charities, regardless of whether Lee wins the two remaining games or not.
