Other than that we are no different. 

What i mean by wild card its just a term really for saying we are unpredictable.

And as far as emotions go we are trying our best to program them into machines currently. Google kenji the robot programmed to love you are bound to find stuff on that. 

If you say "our brain is no different from a computer", then you would be slightly, but noticeably, less wrong.
