Theos-Talk Archives (February 2002 Message tt00387)

Hi, Morten:
Computers can handle routine processess or well defined logical processes. 
On the other hand, it is only the human brain/mind that is capable of 
complex and well defined and totally new line of thinking. We can hand over 
the routine work or processes to computers so that we humans can do 
creative thinking.
