I do think some known weaknesses do make it problematic though; some intelligent behaviour might be not human; aka maybe the player is a generally super intelligent computer but it’s answers are so out there the other players do not recognise it as intelligence. Or the human player is so weird, the answers are mistaken for a computer. Or, the most likely and I have played this many times, lately with gpt3; human behaviour often is not intelligent, at all. And while computers are not intelligent, in a scenario against someone who just responds with emoji’s and such (so, a currently normal convo on the internet), the interrogator might appoint humanness to the wrong side many or all times. As we already know that people who do not know they are chatting to a bot, think it is a human.
While I do not think that is intelligence, it does making testing for it slightly broken. It will come down to ‘I will know it when I see it’ by elitists for exactly the above.
So in short ; I do think the Chinese room argument against it is quite a good one where even the elitist people can fall for if the ‘con’ is elaborate enough (as in; if gpt gets more data, more efficient learning and learns to know when it cannot answer and has to look it up, like calculations). Or maybe then it is intelligent? (To be clear; I don’t think so; I think we need a better tests and definitions).
