Our bodies are interesting machines. We can gather an incredible amount of information, see a huge amount of detail. But we cannot look at something and tell precisely how large it is or what frequency the light reflected from it is. We can build a machine that does this easily, but it cannot tell a beautiful woman from an ugly one. Well, some machines are getting close, by measuring the ratios between features, etc. But still, you see what I mean. We look at things holistically, and don't have the "hardware" to see them reductionistically. Machines are generally programmed to "see" things reductionistically, to analyze something specific. Next step is learning what of each of those things really matter to each of us.
