Question

    Statement : The findings, which appear in the latest issue of the journal ‘Frontiers in Robotics and AI’, suggest that virtual interviewers could prove to be even better than human therapists at helping people open up about their mental health.

    Arguments :

    I. It is impossible to have anonymity and rapport at the same time.

    II. An embodied AI which uses machine vision to interpret test subjects’ verbal and facial cues and respond supportively can be designed to engage test subjects in verbal interviews.

    III. Beyond our grasp is the capacity to imbue such a machine with humanness.

    IV. Removing the idea of human presence leads to more fruitful clinical sessions.

    Which of the argument(s) given above contradicts the above finding?

    A Only III Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only I, II and III Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only II and IV Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only I and III Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Only I, III and IV Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The findings suggest that virtual interviewers could prove to be even better than human therapists and virtual interviewers may be anonymous thus, I contradicts the finding. Argument II suggests a way in which the task mentioned in the statement can be implemented. Thus II does not contradict the finding. Argument III says that developing a machine with human behaviors is beyond our capacity thus, III contradicts the statement. Argument IV supports the removal of human presence when discussing mental issues. Thus it supports the statement.
