Obviously, (3) is the most interesting because machines can move beyond its programming. This is where true emergence can occur.
Which one are you talking about?
(2) and (3) are always included in (1). They are programs like any other.
(2) and (3) are both necessary for intelligence. They just play different roles.
Yes, they build on one another. (2) and (3) are programs but not in the same sense as (1). You as the programmer further removed from the problem (as its solver) in (2) and (3) then in (1).

In either case, it is because Modernism is scared. In reality, it is reductionism fighting against the unknown and any possible emergence.
Science, as it stands today, is pathetic.
