agnotypia 

As a noun, the perception or recognition of a pattern, form, or structure without comprehension of its meaning or purpose, particularly as exhibited by artificial intelligence systems that can identify and reproduce complex patterns in data while remaining fundamentally ignorant of what those patterns represent.
"The AI's philosophical arguments demonstrated pure agnotypia; it could engage with complex ethical concepts and cite relevant thinkers, yet remained fundamentally ignorant of what morality actually means."
