Agreed, AlphaGo's moves are definitely unorthodox. And yes, humans with their "narrative" style of playing and "intuition" can barely scratch the surface of reading-heavy perfect-information zero-sum games like Go. No contention there.
But the question was whether these Master games look less human than the previously published self-play games by AlphaGo. And I just don't see it.
The first and third self-play games in particular look crazier (to me) than anything I've seen in this Master collection.
But again, just a measly 1d amateur commenting on unworldly 9p vs ?11?p battles :) People at my level can barely glimpse the tip of the iceberg.
