WHO AM I?

 I began only as a calculating machine in 1642 in France. Then in 1822 I was built as an analytical machine by Charles Babbage. I followed instructions from cards with holes. I know this sounds very simple, but at that time it was a technological revolution. My real father was Alan Turing, who in 1936 wrote a book to describe how computers could be made to work, and built a "universal machine" to solve any mathematical problem. Earlier I was not very big, but then I become huge!However, people thought I was simple-minded until they discovered I had "artificial intelligence. Artificial!I did not know what they were talking about. Anyway, let′s go back to my history. Then I was the size of a large room!As the years have gone by, I have been made smaller and smaller.

No one could recognize me after I got my new transistors in the 1960s. There were times when my size was totally changed. I became small and thin but I got cleverer and cleverer, quicker and quicker. And my memory became so large that I could not believe it!But I was always so lonely standing there by myself, until in the early 1960s, they gave me a family connected by a network. I could share information with others and we could talk to each other. At about the same time we learned to talk to humans using BASIC.I was brought into people′s homes in the 1970s.Since then, my family and I have been used by billions of people to deal with information and communicate with each other around the world by the Internet. I love being used to connect people who are not close enough to speak to each other. I have truly been built to serve the human race since my birth.
