Can't find the link but I once saw Carlsen (or maybe Nakamura?) say a computer miscalculated the value of a pair of pawns in a position. Essentially the value of the pawns wouldn't become clear until much later in the game and the heuristic the computer attached to space could overvalue it in certain circumstances. More common than that is a top player might make a move that the computer disagrees with until it gets to a depth of 20+ moves when it suddenly thinks it's THE winning move.
