Just nitpicking a little, but you don't seem to understand the concept of an AI. It reprogrammes itself after each encounter (the same way a child does while growing up), so it counts as an emotional responce: reacting the same way other's do when a respone is needed.

If you attempt to mention that the responce is therfore invalid (for not actualy feeling any emotion just a, admittedly frequently updated, responce) then I point you at the 'is my happyness the same as you're happiness' arguement.
