Weaving is clearly a mechanical task that required a mind to control the hardware. Problem-solving is not a mechanical task.



> Problem-solving is not a mechanical task

Food for thought: how sure are we that this statement is true? What does it even mean, seen from a cybernetics perspective? How complex does a task need to be until it's not considered mechanical anymore? Isn't the brain, eventually, a very complex biological machine?


Weaving is mechanical yes.

It is also very difficult to do unless you are just making plain single color fabric.
