I can refer you to many things the human brain and nervous system can't do that computers do very well.

As a former software engineer myself,I I'm pretty familiar with the capabilities of computers and software and even some robots.

However, that computers can do what humans can't do, is true,but then, those computers are just doing what they've been programmed to do, and what they do is basically the repetitious work and easy work, with greater speed. Thus, computers are not doing anything that they were taught to do, after humans had done the same.

Computers can't think, and they lack emotion,, and they can't take the initiative and inventiveness of humans. They can't, for example, wonder about how they (the computers) got here, much less how humans got here. Computers, with all their software and capabilities for speed, cannot emulate a human being,and will never have that capability. Only something or some being with greater than human capabilities, may be able to create a 'thing' that emulates a human being. We can't create anything smarter than we are.

I know. I've been writing automation software since 1967. Still active, sort of. I'm now using ARMs in my hardware designs. They are a mixed bag.

My absolute drop dead favorite uP was the 68000 family.
