People *want* things, and have the capability of figuring out through experience how to get what they want.

Computers don’t want anything, they just execute instructions. If you make a very clever set of instructions, you can sort of simulate a system that “wants” to accomplish specific things, like “recognizing crosswalks” or “picking the most likely next word in this sentence,” but these are very narrow compared to human desires as we interact with our environment.
