Tim Tyler: That's a fallacy - as I have previously explained on Overcoming Bias: we do not just run computer programs to learn things we also run them to do things. ... Not because there is something unknown about the output, but because a computer and a printer can do it faster, better and neater than I can.

That's a silly distinction to use as a basis of criticism. Would you also say that it's a fallacy to claim that we use cars to get to distant places, since we could also get there by walking?
