“Computer and Reality”
The computer is not a pure source of reality.
Humans can use the computer for fantasy and fiction.
We can make a computer “lie” about everything.
So, your computer is not a god for the universe, not even close.
Computer graphics are not always historical or factual.
Visuals and graphics can just be educated guesses.
Let’s say we use computer graphics for our “display” of Ancient Rome.
A “display” and “theater” for computer would be outrageous to the gods.
Our computer is really just plastic, metal, and rubber.
These are not all the elements of the gods.
From a historical perspective, a computer does not know secrets of the gods.
A computer does not know the history of the past.
For lack of a better term, a computer just does not “know” anything.
It’s a computer.
It’s like a video computer.
It’s like a calculator.
It’s like radio frequency.
It’s like electricity.
It’s like impersonal math.
It’s like a robotic copycat.
It’s like fashion with pixels.
The computer is not a pure source of reality.
Sure, the computer can show “dinosaurs” and “cavemen” as such.
But the computer can make up fake information about dinosaurs and cavemen.
Why do we need new computers?
Did those happy, “old” computers make a mistake?
Humans can still make new computers to replace new computers.
Some movies put dinosaurs and cavemen together.
Some movies put dinosaurs and cavemen apart.
And, the computer can show every movie a human ever makes.
A computer is no better than a human; in fact, the computer is helpless!
A computer must obey the human.
A computer can never disagree.
My keyboard is very useful for lies.
If a human like me wants to say, “Zeus is a vampire”, my computer shows it.
My computer must show my lie.
How can a computer be a pure source of reality with this lie?
Even programmers can lie.
