Knowing how the robot works
If a robot looked and behaved like a human, it would be rational to explain its actions in terms of intentionality. But if we knew it acted on the basis of formal symbol manipulations we'd no longer appeal to intentionality to explain its behaviour.
John Searle 1980a. 1980b, 1990b.
