Can machines think? (機械は考えることができるのでしょうか)
と訊かれたミンスキーは、
Of course they can, because you are one! (もちろんさ。君だって機械だろ)
と答えたのだそうだ。

同じ質問をされたダイクストラは、
I don’t know. Can submarines swim? (どうでしょうね。潜水艦は泳げますか?)
と答えたのだそうだ。

同じ質問をされたフォンノイマンは、
If you will tell me precisely what it is that a machine cannot do, then I can always make a machine which will do just that!
(もし君が計算機にはできないと主張するその内容を正確に述べてくれたなら、僕はその内容だけを実行する機械を常に作ることができるよ!)
と答えたのだそうだ。
