23 I was born in 1642 in France. In 1822, I was built as an analytical machine. In 1936, my real father, Alan Turing, described how computers could be made to work in a book and solved any mathematic problem by building a universal machine. People were surprised at my artificial intelligence. At first, I was the size of a large room. As time has gone by, I have been made smaller and smaller. In the 1960s, I got new transistors. My memory became larger and larger, and I got cleverer and quicker. I could share information with others and talk to each other by a net. It was in the 1970s that my family and I have been used by billions of people. I am happy that I have truly been built to serve human race since my birth.
