If Madeleine can learn common sense, a computer can too
Madeleine's experience suggests that a computer with its own non-standard body—a fixed metal box—could also acquire socialised knowledge. If we can figure out what process Madeleine went through, we could apply the process to a computer as well.
Harry Collins (1996).

Note: For more on Collins's views about socialization, see the "Can computers reason scientifically" arguments on Map 1.
