Anyway, if you insist on an example of something that “does arithmetic” without any human intervention whatsoever, I can point to the arithmetic logic unit inside a plugged-in arcade machine in attract mode.

I think the OP is using their own idiosyncratic definition of “doing” to require a conscious agent. This is more usual among those confused by free will.
