Instead of joining your meta-discussion, let me point out some motivation:
- Research should also proceed after groundbreaking work.
- Research should not be isolated but different research approaches can 
be combined. Research is not a one-way street.
- Research in go also serves as a model for research in other or more 
general fields, such as generalised AI, which includes use of AI to 
provide a) interchange with semantics of human domains or b) assistance 
for or replacement of human activities, such as car driving, which 
profit from avoiding errors. Therefore I discuss these aspects.
- Ethical questions are becoming increasingly important in view of the 
fast progress of AI. Surely you are aware that Deepmind knows this.

Congratulations again to the AlphaGo team! Excellent work well
described, a pleasure to read.
