Alphago isn't programmed to think of that as a mistake (i.e. the team wouldn't be disappointed if she did it). It really only cares about W/L.
I can't believe they would be told not to, or that Lee would abide by it in this match! Now, I'm not good enough to evaluate if this seems likely, but I could understand that AlphaGo (especially if it was winning)…
Looks like the other way round - single machine alphago wins 77% of the time, when it gives 4 stones handicap.
The number of serious games above 19x19 is basically nil, so the difference is a bit misleading (although it's definitely more common in go).
Ditto to me. Seems strange - maybe white tried suicide?
But it doesn't seem possible on the web link for the player to pass and then see the score?
