I think the DeepMind team might not even have thought deeply about time control. If we were to express this with the known systems in AlphaGo, how do we express the idea that a surprising move should be given more thought? For example, match 4, move 78 was calculated by AlphaGo as having a probability of being played at 1 in 10,000. Is that something that could trigger a deeper read and use of more time?

Another thing that the commentator was talking about during the the overtime: there would be obvious moves in which Lee Sedol seem to spend a lot of time on. But he was spending most of it thinking of other moves having already decided on what he was going to do. Is that something that could be built into AlphaGo?

Or can we look at how to train a net for time control? Is time control something that has to be wired in?
