&gt; Ask a human to raise 3425 to the power of 542 and watch them sit there for hours trying to work it out.<p>You can&#x27;t compare the speed of a computer to the speed of a human. Only because a human is slow doesn&#x27;t mean that the human is stupid, nor computer are smarter. The electric current in a integrated circuit acts near the speed of light. Light itself is also very <i>fast</i> but not very <i>intelligent</i>.<p>&gt; [...] the world Chess champion has been a computer.<p>Again, this is a matter of speed. If you give a human being the same amount of time in relation what a computer had taken to calculate the same steps of a chess game it would be a more true <i>comparsion of intelligence</i>.<p>&gt; Humans have almost no memory<p>That&#x27;s because the human brain isn&#x27;t trained and not used. We use almost 10% of our brain. So this comparsion also hinks.<p>&gt; The face recognition software that Facebook uses can tell the faces of millions of people apart.<p>And again, this is only a matter of training and not a matter of intelligence.
