It only proves that there is no evidence for the claim that black was winning.
A clear win is somethings that I expect top programs to demonstrate in a game.

The position was not clear and instead of trying to solve the problem by playing
the sides agree to a draw too early(I criticize both sides)

I think that this behaviour will not encourage chess players to watch the next
match and it can reduce the chances that sponsors will pay for another
human-computer match.
