Knowledge of internal processes unnecessary
Inferences about thinking are not based on knowledge of internal operations. We generally infer that someone thinks just on the basis of outward behaviour.
Alan Turing (1950); James Moor, 1987.

"Not even brain scientists examine the brains of their friends before attributing thinking to them"

(Moor, 1987, p.1129.)
