Are you trying to buildyour universal machine? I read your paper at university. - Is it already being taught?- No. No. No, I was precocious. So, you theorised a machinethat could solve any problem? It didn't just do one thing,it did everything? It wasn't just programmable,it was re-programmable? Is that your idea behind Christopher? Human brains can compute large sums very quickly,even Hugh can do that, but I want Christopher to be smarter. To make a calculationand then to determine what to do next. Like a person does. Think of it. An electrical brain. A digital computer. Digital computer?
