The Start of Real Education - Graduation

We, the students of any university, are just machines, like the guy sitting next to you. Image that, when we graduate, we run the same functions insides our brains, we make the same analysis, because we are created out of the same model. Maybe, just maybe, you get talent, so you are slightly more efficient than others, but you still run the same function. What's the function, the function is all the things we learn from all the classes in universities, high-schools...The function is the ways of doing things they taught us, and they taught us all together.
So why do they create machines like us, in the first place? Does the cost of creating a real computer based machine exceeds the cost of educating a human-being more than 13 years? I don't think so. Even worse, we make mistake and machines do not. So why?

What differentiate us from machines besides the creativities of very few super-smart people is that we continue to learn after our functions are set (i.e. after we graduate). Machines don't, machines just do what they are created to do, and never get better unless someone update them. But, we update ourselves.
So, really, when you finally get your degrees and sit back thinking that you complete your education and it's time to use the knowledge you've learned to make tons of money, you are basically wrong. That never happened. Why would a company pays tons of money to a machine that can be found anywhere? If that's true, your whole class are gonna make tons of money. So, you know that's not true.
You'll never make tons of money unless you become a better machine. Thus, after graduation, what you gonna do is update yourself, because the real education is just started - a education for your own.
