I think it is. The completely mechanistic view of human behaviour (that we are merely reaction and/or goal seeking machines) fails to capture a host of other behaviours we are capable of (sacrifice, altruism). That is, it fails to capture those herd responses that are external to us. I'm not just talking about fish swimming in schools (which has a natural survival explanation) but more emergent behaviours that lie outside the flock/fight/flee/fuck/feed set of things. Kindness to strangers, empathy, understanding. It's entirely plausible that AI might produce machines, and we may deem them intelligent, but their calculations can't reproduce the human mind because it's obvious that is not how we work.
