Why would you say dead wrong? Don't you think feeling necessitates thought, real introspective thought? Do computers think? I would argue no, because the can't quantify the emotional weight baggage of situations. We want judges and jurors to think about their decision, or to bring in emotional relevancies. We use computers to compute outcomes/models devoid of emotive influences. Do you think maths or compute them. Do you think about love lost or compute about them?
