Another possible metaphor is the pocket calculator.
It can find a number for any expression you can put into it, and in most cases it can do it way faster and more accurately than a human could. However, that doesn't make it a replacement for a human. An intelligent agent like a human is still needed for the crucial part of figuring out what expression would be meaningful to put into it.
That is a very helpful metaphor for wrapping my head around both the advantages and limitations of SPR, thank you! :)
