AlphaZero Doubled Pawns. AlphaZero Middlegame Strategy #4

GM Matthew Sadler and WIM Natasha Regan explain how AlphaZero - DeepMind's general purpose artificial intelligence algorithm - thinks, trains and plays chess.
The most intriguing aspect of AlphaZero’s chess mastery is that it taught itself to play chess at superhuman strength without human input through 44 million lightning-fast games of self-play.
AlphaZero didn’t have the benefit of the hundreds of years of accumulated human knowledge about such elements as pawn structure. Everything it does, it discovered for itself. It’s fascinating to try to gauge AlphaZero’s opinion of typical strategical concepts
What pawn structures does it like, and which plans does it follow in them? We start off with pawn structures and “Doubled Pawns” in particular. What does AlphaZero think of doubled pawns? Does it accept or aim for doubled pawns, or does it avoid them altogether?
