My results do not support the view of humans being analogous to machines. My results were pretty inconsistent with each trial; there was no established pattern, as would be in the case of machines. Moreover, humans are more susceptible to error and inaccuracy, whereas machines are usually either completely functional with accuracy, and even if there is error within them, it is not sporadic as in the case of humans. <!--

-->Thus, my non-uniform results are a strong indicator of a great difference between the human brain and machines.
