computer

Definition

The plain noun matters mostly inside the compound computer use: an agent driving a real machine the way a person does, by looking at the screen and issuing mouse and keyboard events. The appeal is coverage — it reaches software that exposes no API — and the cost is safety, since every action lands on a live system where a misclick has real consequences and is not easily undone.
