If you read a poem and feel moved by it, but then find out
it was actually written by a computer, would you feel differently about the
experience? Would you think that the computer had expressed itself and been
creative, or would you feel like you had fallen for a cheap trick? In this
talk, writer Oscar Schwartz examines why we react so strongly to the idea of a
computer writing poetry — and how this reaction helps us understand what it
means to be human.
