[computer-go] Purpose of Neural-Nets?



Dear all,
 
In my own field, computer-chess, there are no real efforts to build a neural-net programm. In Go neural nets seem to be an inportant concept. Can the neural-net experts explain me the purpose? Is it primarly:
a) To make the strongest Go-programm possible.
b) To learn network-learning.
c) To write a paper about network-learning.
d) Its just fun to play around with neural-networks.
e) Others.
 
In case of a). One could first learn the weights and then hardcode the weight-function to speed up the evaluation. Alternatively one could have 2 versions of a program. The slow learner and the fast tournament-player. Is this done, or is a neural-net programm always a neural-net program?
 
Best Regards
Chrilly
