It is also an advantage for the machine before the first piece move if it is a
classical time control.

Humans are simply not strong in chess and time control is not relevant.

I am also not sure if slower time control are better for the human.

Some humans may have better chances to beat chess programs at blitz when at long
time control the machines do not do the same errors that they do in blitz.

I remember that adams after drawing against Junior some years ago claimed that
he could beat Junior easily in blitz with the same opening when it trained
against it at home but it turned out that Junior played better at long time
control and could draw the game.
