在英语中,"不能独自思考" 可以用 "not capable of independent thought" 来表示。这个短语的来源源于人们对人类独立思考能力的描述,即人类能够独立思考并不受外界影响,而其他生物或机器可能不具有这种能力。

以下是一些英文例句及其中文翻译:

"The robot was programmed to follow instructions, but it was not capable of independent thought." (这个机器人只能按照指令运行,但不能独立思考。)
"Some critics argue that social media algorithms are not capable of independent thought and merely amppfy existing biases." (一些批评者认为,社交媒体算法不能独立思考,只会放大现有的偏见。)
"He was a charismatic leader, but his followers were not capable of independent thought and bpndly followed his every command." (他是一位有魅力的领导者,但他的追随者不能独立思考,盲目地遵从他的每一条命令。)
