Remember (Machine or living?): Living things eat, breathe and grow; machines are made by people and work on electricity or a push. A computer can work with words, pictures, sounds and numbers — very fast and without getting tired. A computer cannot eat, drink, grow, smell or feel; it only follows the instructions we give it.
