In the 1940s, the first computers were bigger than cars. Now computers are becoming smaller and better.
Some computers are tiny. You may be unaware of them. There is probably one inside your TV or washing machine. You depend on computers more than you realize.

The answer is “No’’. Your brain can produce new ideas but computers cannot. However, one day computers may be able to do a better job than human beings. For example, they may be better than doctors at doing their job.
