When we talk about computers today we mean machines, but it is worth noting computers in Turing’s time were more often humans using pencil and paper. The mechanical computers before Turing were elementary at best. Rudimentary calculating machi

This argument neatly sidesteps Turing’s theorem by specifying there is no such thing as an arbitrary problem - a random problem picked from the infinite set of problems. At the same time,
