AlphaGo-AlphaGo Game 15: New, different and possibly bad

“I don't like to call it weird, but in this game we're going to see some new and different stuff that AlphaGo is doing with the joseki that I don't really understand and I don't like it,” says Michael Redmond 9p in his commentary on Game 15. "It'll be interesting to see if eventually I change my mind, but for now I'm going to say it's a bad move." Redmond adds that "We'll also see another typical AlphaGo move later in the game that's pretty exciting too."
