Turin, who is he?
I called computers stupid, and justified that by pointing out that they cannot deal with their own crashes while people can. The fundamental distinction between computers and people is breadth. Computers are single-minded, specialists of the highest order. That is no good in the
So, the logical conclusion of what I have said above, if you have not spotted it yet, is that, even if there are some things that computers can do better than people now, it is only now. People develop in a balanced way ... that is necessary for living beings .... we will, in due course, way outstrip computers at everything.
I might add here, since I drew the comparison of computers with specialists, that the same goes for specialists (concert pianists, or mathematicians for example) as goes for computers: those of us who choose to develop in a natural, balanced way will develop comparable abilities, and better, in due course. (I am a little hesitant here, because many of those 'experts' are not all they seem: there is many a concert pianist operating on a phenomenal memory and little musical appreciation!)
