It seems that AlphaGo needs better time management skills. Not sure how that can be added. Michael Redmond mentioned that if a human player sees an unexpected move, he/she would just take all the time needed to read out the moves. AlphaGo seems to make speedy decision even after unexpected moves.

Yes, that's how modern chess engines manage time. If the score suddenly, drastically changes during search, they give themselves much more time.

In all of these games, AlphaGo used close to a constant amount of time per move, while Lee's varied a lot.

Apparently they only recently added a neural net for time management. Seems it is either not the best approach, or just not yet well trained.
