I think it's meaningless anyway. A calculator doesn't multiply numbers like a human does. The important part is to develop systems that can do many human tasks

Agreed. I think we, as humans, like to think in terms of various metaphors when it comes to how we perceive ourselves in the world ( for example, "I am not some sort of automaton/robot" when objecting to some boss way back when ).
