Summary
If an artwork is great, it must express a deep emotion.
If an artwork expresses an emotion, that artwork’s creator must be capable of experiencing the emotion in question.
If an artwork expresses an emotion, that artwork’s creator must be capable of experiencing the emotion in question.

Very Strongly Supported Conclusions
If an artwork is great, its creator must be able to experience at least one emotion.
A
A computer can create an artwork that expresses sorrow or love only if it has actually experienced such an emotion.
Unsupported. We know that in order to create an artwork that expresses sorrow or love, a computer must be capable of experiencing that emotion. However, that doesn’t mean the computer needs to have actually experienced it.
B
The greatest art is produced by those who have experienced the deepest emotions.
Unsupported. Creators of great art must be able to experience deep emotion, but that doesn’t mean that the art’s level of greatness correlates with the depth of the creator’s emotions.
C
An artwork that expresses a deep emotion of its creator is a great artwork.
Unsupported. “Expresses deep emotion” is a necessary condition of “great artwork”, but it is not a sufficient condition. While every great artwork expresses deep emotion, that doesn’t mean that every artwork that expresses deep emotion is great.
D
As long as computers are constructed so as to be incapable of experiencing emotions they will not create great artworks.
Very strongly supported. As shown in the stimulus diagram, we can chain the conditional claims to see that “can experience emotion” is a necessary condition of “great artwork.” In other words, computers can only create great artwork if they’re able to experience emotion.
E
Only artworks that succeed in expressing deep emotions are the products of great artists.
Unsupported. The stimulus doesn’t rule out the possibility that great artists sometimes produce unemotional (and therefore not great) artworks!
