Well then you must be surprised that our computers are much faster
and more accurate than the ancients.
That's an assumption
It is QM which has made possible the invention of the transistor. The
machine of the ancient were closer to Babbage machine, but the current
one use transistor, which has made possible their speeding up and the
miniatuirization.
To be sure, we can always accelerate any computer by an arbitrary
factors on almost all input sby just programming them differently. But
this is another type of (non practical) speed-up, and for all
practical purposes, we can say that the machine of the ancient, and
Babbage machine are much slower and "antic" than your PC.

Of course we weren't given them; they were invented and built
God grants intelligence and ability to discover and invent to whom
He Wills
- by atheists and agnostics.
It is up to the individual whether to recognise and appreciate the
God-given intelligence and abilities, or to pretend otherwise.
