“Actually-not-thinking” is still overselling it. Computers don’t think. They compute, which is really just doing calculations, and that is not as complex as it sounds. I’ve seen people make water do calculations. The number of calculations and the speed they can be performed makes it seem like magic.
Otherwise known as “programmers.”
Seriously though we tricked metal into thinking with runes and lightning. That is magic.
well actually silicon is a semi-conductor. not entirely a metal.
Ok, we tricked stone into actually-not-thinking.
