Other way around, these computers we use resemble us (however not particularly closely) because we created them, not vice-versa.

If A resembles B, it’s implied that B resembles A—or at least that was the usage I intended.

Oh yeah, I wasn't disagreeing with you about the resemblance, just kind of pushing the "who-made-who" point.
