The many mansions reply trivialises strong AI
It's entirely possible that someday some device will possess intentionality, but that's irrelevant because the Chinese Room argument is meant to refute the more specific thesis that formal computational processes can produce intentionality.
By expanding the project of AI to include any device that can artificially produce intentionality, the many mansions reply trivialises the project of strong AI.

John Searle, 1980a, 1980b, 1990b.
