“What do we actually expect of our data processor? As our computers acquire interactive interfaces, voices, and adaptive behavior, we may be tempted to invest emotion in them, but they offer only simulation, which breeds intense irritation. It is like trying to love a mirror that won't love back. ("My computer does not understand me")”

“In many schools today, the phrase "computer-aided instruction" means making the computer teach the child. One might say the computer is being used to program the child. In my vision, the child programs the computer and, in doing so, both acquires a sense of mastery over a piece of the most modern and powerful technology and establishes an intimate contact with some of the deepest ideas from science, from mathematics, and from the art of intellectual model building.”
