Can we generate a problem automatically? Here, we means human being and intelligent agents or robots.

For we as human beings, Can we generate a problem automatically? this is an important topic for problem based reasoning or problem based teaching and learning, because one course have not a lot of problems for students. For example, for computer programming course of undergraduate students, there are only a few dozens of algorithms that are worthy of studying and questioning. Therefore, if we can generate 1000 problems automatically for one course. at least the lecturers are happy.

For intelligent agents or robots, Can we generate a problem automatically? this is an important problem for AI, because intelligent agents or robots can generate world class research problems, significant research problems for researchers and developers, so that researchers need not think about research problems, they can then focus on how to solve these world class research problems, significant research problems using their own intelligence or artificial intelligence. Problemless research is more important than driverless car, because researchers have liberated from the hardest stage of research, that is what are the research problems for the research or research articles.

It seems that we do not care about problems around us and annoying us often.
