There were some games with Gu Li? Could you point me to them? I can't seem to find them.
Gu Li and Ke Jie played each other (in a jubango -- a ten game series -- in 2014: an excellent series of games!). AlphaGo did not play Gu Li unfortunately.

#12Will he learn from the matches against Lee Sedol? Will Alpha Go become even more advanced (ie, have more hardware added)?

I'm guessing that AlphaGo has been doing more learning. Studying Sedol's games is probably a good platform but certainly not a plan to win - Jie needs to go in expecting the unexpected. Just look at how different the games were between Hui and Sedol. To answer your question more directly: giving AlphaGo more hardware would only give it more CPU cycles to work with (faster decisions, not necessarily good ones). The tr…

Doesn't faster hardware allow it to navigate more of the search tree, in effect giving it more time to find better decisions?

I assume Alpha Go has been trained using a large number of games played by Go masters so the games it played itself probably won't provide much more information, unless it can learn its own weaknesses from those games.

They said it was trained with the games of 5 dan and stronger players from KGS, plus self playing. No professional games and no training with the games of a specific player, because there so few of them (60-70 per year).
On the other hand, it is not recognized as such in Korea, let alone in other countries. There has been multiple attempts to change the Korean copyright law to explicitly list Go game records as an example of work that can be copyrighted. All such attempts failed so far.

Although this is not the main reason, there is also a matter of intellectual property of Go game records. The official position of Korea Baduk Association is that Go game records are copyrightable.

Who owns the copyright?
