When I learn Go, there are all sorts of techniques such as joseki, life-death, tesuji. AlphaGo implicitly learned these techniques, since it learned from professional games, which are experts in those topics.
This is my problem with neural networks in general, since they do not discuss how go boards divide into smaller problems or heuristics for putting them back together.
to be corny, Go is really a teaching tool for how people think logically and abstractly. It's not about teaching computers.

This strategy is called "chunking", and is an adaptation humans have developed to solve complex problems. There's no reason to artificially constrain AI to use the same crutches we do.
