The basic point of the book is that humans and machines are capable of different things - and thus are not interchangeable as the AI ideologists assume they (eventually) will be. Humans can guide their decisions by using values - what Weizenbaum calls judgement. Values can bye definition not be reduced to code. Being into the philosophy and anthropology of values this makes a lot of sense to me. Values are the things that we can't explain the importance of by referring to something else.
