For those who don’t follow human vs AI Go (I don’t), this is with a 2 stone handicap in favor of the human which is apparently standard.

Yes, so calling it a "defeat" is improper to me.

The headline is misleading, but this is still huge. 2 stones against katago is insane, I'd never have guessed we'd see that, ever.

Annoyingly misleading. I read it that the human player was handicapped.

Like many random headlines they may be targeted at people who know something about a topic.

If you know anything about go or computer go from last 10 years then it is obvious which direction the handicap goes.
