Hello guys! First off, thank you all so much for giving us your time and visiting our quaint community. Secondly, Redmond, you did a most excellent job commentating, most notably in the 5th match.
One of the most exciting features of AlphaGO vs Sedol (or any other 9p) is that we get to see moves never before played that are highly effective. How rapidly do you guys believe Baduk and professional Baduk will change now that we've got an influx of new styles and moves?
Bonus thought: I have an interesting hypothesis on why AlphaGO made the most odd error in game 4 (I can't find the move number, but it was the move in the lower left played between two of Lee's stones). I believe that after realizing how good Lee's move 78 was, she might've attempted to play a move in similar form. If you notice, there are quite a few similarities between the most local board position of the moves.
Bonus bonus thought!
I also noticed that one of AlphaGO's weaknesses is, ironically, being put into a super deep sequence. In game 5, the tombstone could not be read by AlphaGO because before she reached the depth in the move tree to see that she was losing, she would shift her thoughts to other possibilities. This can also be seen after move 78 when she misplayed 79. A deep sequence simply brings too many permutations for AlphaGO to confidently find the optimal move.
