> consequences of their outputs

For what purpose exactly? When the computer is asked the solution to a problem, it must be absolute: "What is the sum of 12 and 45"; "Is Jack cognitively apt" etc.: we want a truth, strictly. What to do with that truth, it is another problem, and not the priority of the computer vis-a-vis the requirement from truthiness. This is, of course, still in the context of adults.
