What makes a robot human?

What are the traits of a robot? Robots are tireless, reliable, unemotional, and unquestioning. That is, after all, how they are programmed. We invented robots and computers to be our faithful servants, to do the things that we couldn't or didn't want to do ourselves. In so many areas robots perform better than humans, and we accept this with good grace because they are only robots and we are the superior ones. The one thing they can't do is be human. They can't feel, emote, create, or love.

However, our notion of what it is to be a human versus a robot is currently being challenged by the latest experiments in computer programming. Take, for instance, the area of creativity. A little while ago, a new and exciting composer called Emily Howell broke onto the music scene. Her music was original, beautiful, and contemporary and two albums were released. Emily's only flaw? She was someone's computer.

The human responsible for Emily, American professor David Cope, has worked on robot creativity for many years. He had originally attempted to code a computer program which wrote music. The results were predictably terrible. So he gave up writing rules for the computer and instead just fed raw data into it for the computer to analyse itself. Cope eventually produced a computer that could analyse any composer in history and then write an entirely new work that sounded just like how that composer would have written it himself.He called it EMI - Experiments in Musical Intelligence.

Composers were outraged, and musicians refused to perform EMI's works. Undaunted, Cope tried a less controversial approach. He formed a new database of only the new work that EMI had created. This he fed into his new computer program, Emily Howell, and from that point she began working on her own musical style. What is interesting is that her music is contemporary. Like other modern composers, she has learned from the past to create music for our time. Emily is unfortunately even more controversial, as she is now competing with humans in their own creative field (…).

De acordo com o artigo, avalie as afirmativas indicadas a seguir.

I. Humanos inventaram robôs para serem seus leais servidores e realizar tarefas que não queremos realizar.

II. Emily Howell é professora universitária nos Estados Unidos.

III. Compositores no mundo todo ficaram contentes em performar as canções criadas pelo software.

IV. Foi criado um computador capaz de analisar qualquer compositor na história e escrever canções novas que soavam exatamente como citados compositores teriam escrito.

É correto apenas o que se afirma em
