Greeting @momentocat, what you just did is exactly robotic. Replacing words for others trying to make a counter point to one that does not exist, you missed the concept behind my comment. Machine can recognize your face and say “Hi momentocat” and recognize my face and says “Hi Jon”. Now if you were that machine you might add to your database “theclear= Jon”. But you as human can say to yourself theclear is tricking me to think his name is Jon. If I were to be the machine reading you your comment, I will say to you: yes Nokia is very nice and smart phone as a mother of iPhone X. But me as human I can assume that you thought I am trying to prove the existence of God by giving such example. You see, the machine can get so advance and it can recognize your face even when you are crying. And it might say “I am sorry about what happened to you.” And you might say “No I am so happy that I could not help it but to cry.” But if were to look at you I will know that. Even if the machine get even more advanced and recognize that you are crying because you are happy, my original point is why we are captivated in making such a machine. Are we trying to be God like? Because answering this question can lead to more questions, philosophical one that is. I hope this time I expressed my words right. Thanks for commenting.

The thought process of every human is a set of algorithms anyway. Our body is a computer. Our consciousness is the result of it. I explored it further in my full comment under this post. My mind recognizes the face and executes the algorithm connected to the results of this recognition.
By giving things new names will not mean we understand it. I can argue the same way; If I believe in God that God Is the processor of the joint computer called universe all what he has to do is change the data set (Information) (God words) and then it is there. Delete the data of anything and it is gone. I agree with you that We humane like a sophisticated computer. And we are improving by the day in our technology. BUT we have very very long way to go. The best A.I. we have until now will not compete with a mosquito. And I don’t think mosquitoes have feelings, conscious, morals, ethics or imaginations.
To come to a conclusion I can say this: Human sets on the top of the creation pyramid. Yet we are born the least knowing about what to do to survive. The only thing we know is sucking. The less intelligent the species the more built in survival knowledge it has at birth. I would expect evolution to do the opposite. I am not saying evolution is right or wrong . We have a lot to learn still. Cheer.
