When I was a student, Deep Blue beating Kasparov was old news, but AI was still a long way from even shodan level. That fact came up in my A-Level Computing course and I learnt the rules. Once I got to uni, other people on my CompSci course also knew the basics so I got to play some games.
AlphaGo was obviously very interesting for me, so I watched a lot the of games and commentary as well as playing a bit online for the first time. I've picked up the game again lately, hopefully for good this time!
