RE: turing test

No doubt: the computer plays white, black's human.

During the fuseki is difficult to tell, but there are 
still some nuances:
W two straight kakaris are a kind of unorthodox strategie
more usual in progs than in humans, B13 and B17 are more 
human moves instead.
B25-27 shows also a human sequence, of course it could be 
a middle game joseki implemented, but still.
W38, W42 have made me doubt a lot, they don't look like 
progs moves to me.
Same for W54 and 56, although they are meaningless enough 
while black is making profit.
W100 is the kind of tennuki a human does'nt do easily, but 
that is comon in progs.
Same for W104.
B115,117,119 is another sequence of sente moves that progs 
don't play easily.
OTOH, W130 instead of going for the kill, is prog style: a 
human would give the 2 ataries to close the eye at F1 & H1 
after playing at the right point in G3, which if spoted by 
a human is followed, but can be a shape move not fully 
understanded by the prog.
Why white doesn't kill neither black tries to survive ?
B131 is puzzling: black was not playing that bad, is he 
probing the computer ? Or is the other way around: White's 
the human and it's probing the prog's skills at L&D ?
W136 after 134 adds inconsistency over inconsistency, 
B137 can show either that the prog has finally read
the L&D problem or that the human patience reached the end ...
W156, protecting the wrong point looks again prog move.
B163 instead looks human: taken into the logical sequence
he plays it to the end, ending in gote without realizing
that one can tennuki always.
B197 is another strange move, typical shape move by computer,
if it's played out of fear by the human, then he's weaker
than I though ... explaining the L&D story at the lower side.
W224: again, after a well though sequence, white tennukies
just before of killing ... only a prog can do this !!!!
B235 is a ko threat, something difficult to see from a prog.
