Chomsky's own words.

Most likely not. This is one of his weird pieces co-authored with Jeffrey Watamull. I don’t doubt that he put his name on it voluntarily, but it reads much more like Watamull than Chomsky. The views expressed in the interview we’re commenting on are much more Chomsky-like.

He explicitly says he didn't write it in this article:

"NC: Credit for the article should be given to the actual author, Jeffrey Watumull, a fine mathematician-linguist-philosopher. The two listed co-authors were consultants, who agree with the article but did not write it."

Good point! It's useful to have a reference for this, thanks. It's obvious to anyone who's read some of Chomsky's work that he didn't write the NYT article, but I can understand why others might find this claim a bit implausible, given that his name is at the top of it.
