Dismayed

On the Chessbase website (), in the article titled, Nanjing: Carlsen strikes again, third win in four games, it is written in commentary to the Javenko-Carlsen game after 24.Nd4?!, "both Fritz and Rybka definitely prefer 24.Rf1 and show a small amount of dismay at this move."
How is it possible that machines can 'show dismay'?
