Best Answer

Humans have a capacity, as a species, for empathy. They can make judgment calls and make exceptions to the rules. A computer will never be able to form lasting relationships, though they may be able to carry on simple conversations.

Take for instance the bots here on Wiki Answers which help to spot inappropriate content. They cannot determine when a word is being used as profanity or when it is being used for other reasons. They cannot understand whether a random string of numbers is actually gibberish, or whether it is a math problem. They only do what they are programmed to do and cannot realize when there are valid exceptions.

Two basic things that a computer cannot do?

Because computers have boundaries/limits on what actions they can perform due to artificial intelligence, they can't do some specific things. Here is a small list of what they can't do from the top of my head. In a few years, computers/technology will advance to the point where this list is meaningless. This answer was written in 2009. *They are not human beings so it is impossible for them to comprehend feelings *They can not perform 50 GHz per core as of 2009 * Computer CPU's require cooling from fans/liquid cooling * Since human beings have programmed computers they will only do the functions that the programmer has laid out for them. * Self-maintenance- computers require permission from the owner to download virus software/remove malicious viruses. Those are just a couple of things that computers can't do. In a few years from now, this information will need to be updated. -MichelleLynn
