Can this artificial intelligence program replace writers, journalists and poets?

Seven years ago, my student and I at Penn State built a bot to write a Wikipedia article on Bengali Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore's play "Chitra." First, it culled information about "Chitra" from the internet. Then it looked at existing Wikipedia entries to learn the structure for a standard Wikipedia article. Finally, it summarised the information it had retrieved from the internet to write and publish the first version of the entry. However, our bot did not "know" anything about "Chitra" or Tagore. It did not generate fundamentally new ideas or sentences.
