In his target article "Is AI the right method for cognitive science?" Green (2000) wants to establish that results in AI have little or no explanatory value for psychology and cognitive science as AI attempts to "simulate something that is not, at present, at all well understood". While Green is right that the foundations of psychology are still insufficiently worked out, there is no reason for his pessimism, which rests on a misconception of AI. AI properly understood can be seen to contribute to the clarification of foundational issues in psychology and cognitive science.
