The problem with the standalone phrase is that is doesn't define what constitutes thinking, it doesn't define what constitutes oneself, and it doesn't define what constitutes existence.
You have got the point here, at that time computers didn't exist, so they simply ignored the thinking definition probleem.

Though this last statement will pose new problems when it come to plants and unicellular beings.
