Humans have an infinite capacity machines lack
Unlike deterministic automata, persons might be in an infinite number of states within a finite period of time. Such an infinite capacity could allow persons to make decisions that machines could never make.

Selmer Bringsjord, 1992.

Note: Bringsjord is discussing a possible, rather than an actual, human capacity.
