sorry, but how is this a machine?

its an electrical device that modifies energy to performance of human tasks..

no, it's a light filament!............imo, this does not qualify as a machine.

well, I guess the definition for "machine" better be changed then because this is a "mechanical or electrical device that transmits or modifies energy to perform or assist in the performance of human tasks." just like the goal description provides. I think too many people here think a machine has to be something metal with gears and gadgets or something

k5683 : I am the same opinion as you

since when have human been producing light?

it is electrical right? It transmits/modifies energy right? It assists in the performance of human tasks right?
So, if a clocks parts are okay in this contest why not light parts? I mean, we just look at a clock or watch and really don't do anything with it right? It just helps us tell what time it is. Well, a light just helps us see.

I am sorry, but imo, that still not not make it a machine....not even a simple one.
