The speaker states that she wants to expose students to appropriate examples of computer applications. However, the example she provided related to a farming application which she thought was probably not relevant to many contexts in which computers are used today.According to the speaker, the use of robotic milking machines shows that what is perceived as an appropriate use of computer technology from one perspective (in this case the farmer's perspective), can be construed as completely inappropriate from another perspective (in this case the perspective of the farm animals themselves).The key criterion by which the appropriateness of the use of computer technology should be measured is whether the actual impact could be considered "charming." If this is the case, then the application should be supported, if not, another strategy should be identified.Computers are powerful tools that can be used across a wide range of areas. As an example, the speaker cites a robotic milking machine that operates in a harsh environment and serves to improve the lives of both the farmers and the animals themselves.Computers are powerful tools that can be used across a wide range of areas.
