Jean is correct!

Of course, unbounded nondeterminism is a somewhat artificial example. However, the extra power of Actors over Turing Machines is critical for IoT and the implementation of Intelligent Systems.

I'm sorry, but unless you produce a proof of hypercomputation with models that have unbounded determinism, you're a crank.

As explained in the articles referenced, Actor systems have unbounded nondeterminism because of indeterminacy.

No "hypercomputation" is required ;-)
