The chip is made of silicon but it's not just silicon
It's made of silicon because silicon is a semiconductor and the meaning of a semiconductor is that a current conducts electricity from one side to the other and doesn't conduct electricity the other way around
This excellent property is suitable for the installation of integrated circuits on it
The integrated circuit is made up of various logic circuits and the so-called logic circuits are gates and gates and gates and these circuits allow the computer to
run
So a computer is silicon with integrated circuits inside it
