I see. You'd like to patent the brain, then,
I suppose because when I surf the web there are
electrical signals going on that "change" the
brain?
Come on, silly. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

In any event, there clearly is a change in structure. Electrons are
physical
entities and there location is changed bases on whether the new
software is
loaded or not.
Not every physical change is a change
in structure. By your definition no car goes anywhere because every time a
moving part of the machine moves it is a change in structure and the car becomes
a different car.
Electrons change locations in a computer on a constant
basis. You can't call this a change in machine structure because if you do no
computer can run any software without becoming a different computer every time
an electron moves.
I don't subscribe to your assertion that there
has to be an improvement or
change in structure.
Then the words
"to a machine" in the phrase "improvement to a machine" lose their definitional
anchors. There is no way to distinguish an improvement to a machine from an
improvement to something which is not a machine in your logic. This alone
suffices to prove you wrong.
