If I shake some dice in a cup are they thinking about what number they’ll reveal when I throw them?

If I take a plane apart and throw all the parts off a cliff, will they achieve sustained flight?

If I throw some braincells into a cup alongside the dice, will they think about the outcome anymore than the dice alone?

that depends, if you explain the rules of the game you're playing and give the dice a goal to win the game, do they adjust the numbers they reveal according to the rules of the game?

If so, yes, they're thinking

As someone who plays a lot of Dungeons and Dragons, it sure feels like the dice are thinking sometimes.

The rules of the game are to reveal two independent numbers in the range [1,6].
