Computers today can read perfect machine-sent Morse too, if the S/N ratio is
good. (Similarly, RTTY has always gone to pot when the signals aren't
stable, whether it's the old mechanical encoder/decoders or modern
computers.)

What humans can do that no machine has even approached yet is read human
generated Morse, yet humans can do it with ease given adequate experience,
just as humans can understand speech with adequate experience while
computers still flail and make absurd errors no matter how long they work at
it.
