Yes - Go is full of concepts like 'aji' (lit. "taste"), thickness, influence, good and bad shape which are features that can only really be evaluated in terms of actual points dozens of moves later.
I think Go is particularly difficult for AI because you need fuzzy pattern matching and precise reading out of positions (life and death problems). as well as the judgement to know when to use which.
