It is a tricky philosophical question. However, i feel that a robot cannot be a human.Firstly, a robot is programmed to have feelings like we do. hence when we hit it, it can only do as its programme tells it to do. It cannot do otherwise. When some of us get hit, we will just not retaliate and forgive the person. However, a robot, which is programmed to be angry when it gets hit, cannot understand the circumstances under which it was hit and hence cannot act in other ways, hence a robot cannot be a human.
A robot also cannot truly feel things like a human. It is only programmed to do so. Hence, it can never truly act like a human and react to different situations. It can only do as it is programmed, so, it will not be able to improvise like a human. When hit accidentally, they can only express anger. When laughed at, they can only express anger. When someone shares a joke, they must laugh, hence, how can a robot programmed to be a human actually be a human?
Furthermore, people make mistakes, a robot which is programmed can never make mistakes as it will always follow its computer programme that guides it. Humans will always make mistakes but a robot cannot make mistakes, hence this shows that a robot cannot be a human.
