• It has too much memory

• It is too fast

What is a potential issue with relying on computers during natural disasters?

• Computers can predict disasters

• Computers can be destroyed in disasters

• Computers can prevent disasters

• Computers can create disasters

How do humans and computers differ in decision-making when presented with multiple options?

• Humans are more consistent

• Computers are more biased

• Humans may show bias

• Computers are less reliable

What is a key advantage of computers in decision-making?

• They are unpredictable

• They are flexible
