Yes, I think the programs will have similar biases. In this game Sedol had some groups that were alive, but needed correct responses to stay alive. Even though the pro's stones won’t die, the playouts sometimes manage to kill them. This makes the program think it is more ahead than it actually is. AlphaGo should be much more accurate because it has a value network and can replay sequences from the mains search.
