What kind of things can you do in Minecraft by building computers out of that redstone stuff?
-
Well, computing stuff. In theory anything your PC or phone can do.
Like writing a comment on Lemmy. Or watching YouTube. Or playing Doom.
It will be slow as hell and you'd also have to implement a lot of stuff that has been created IRL for decades, but it's possible.
A CPU is a CPU, it can do the same things all CPUs can, some are faster, some are slower.
I guess you could eventually run out of space to build the in-game CPU, but I also heard the maps are ridiculously large.

To paraphrase a section of what was already said above:
Once you can make AND, OR and NOT gates, you can do everything. Everything any computer does is done with those three.
In Minecraft you can build AND, NOT, and OR gates.

I've seen a video of someone building a text recognition algorithm that predicts the numbers of drawn digits. I've also seen someone run a Minecraft-like game inside of Minecraft.

As you say, once you can build a nand gate, you can go everywhere.
If OP wants to know how, I suggest this way which I found useful and entreating:
-
In the early days before rednet I built a functional computer network by building a shared bus with a LUA script that waited for addressed triggers.
Very laggy but I had fun.

the redstone machine can't have access to the internet though.
