The name is the method

Move 37

In 2016, a Go-playing AI called AlphaGo faced Lee Sedol, one of the greatest players alive, at a game people thought machines were still decades from winning. On move 37 of the second game, it played something no human would have. The commentators called it a mistake, and Lee Sedol stood and left the room to compose himself. It was the move that won the match. What looked like a blunder was a better read of the board than any human could see.

That’s the Signal 37 pattern. The right move can look crazy when you can’t find the signal in the noise. We find the signal so you can see your move, trust it and move before anyone else even knows there’s a move to make.
