Don't you think that, even from a strictly scientific perspective, more exchange of knowledge between computer science and social sciences would be good? Isn't it a shame that, for example, social media platforms don't benefit from the decades of research in social science to create a platform that's more beneficial for society? They hit roadblocks and cause problems which could have been easily prevented with this knowledge.
I think it's similar to the relationship between computer science and statistics - both can live without the other, but both have a huge benefit of connecting their knowledge, working together, and even merging their curricula (into data science).
If you haven't read the whole article, I really recommend doing so - I was put off by the title as well, but it's an interesting analysis and makes some good recommendations.
