3 humans + AI !
Zen Go is playing for the AI side ...
...The Nihon Ki-in expects that the development of Go AI will greatly contribute to the advancement of the skills of Go players. It will take this opportunity to hold “World Go Championship”, which will include a GO AI as a player, with the collaboration of Japan, China and Korea...
I wonder why Ke Jie is not playing there? Or is he preparing for the match
against AlphaGo, despite I don't have any current info, if that match occurs at all?
“Pair Go” — A game where one Chinese pro will play against another...except they will both have their own AlphaGo teammate, alternating moves, to take the concept of ‘learning together’ quite literally.
“Team Go” — A game between AlphaGo and a five-player team consisting of China’s top pro players, working together to test AlphaGo’s creativity and adaptability to their combined style.
“Ke Jie vs AlphaGo” — Of course, the centerpiece of the event will be a classic 1:1 match of three games between AlphaGo and the world’s number one player, Ke Jie, to push AlphaGo to (...perhaps beyond!) its limits.

If you have news about major events involving AIs for two-player zero-sum games with perfect information, you are more than welcome to post them here, as far as I am concerned.
I used to have posts about about human chess deleted in this forum, and here we have human go?
