Isn't this the Chinese room thing?
In general, an A is a B in some context if you can't tell the difference within that context.
The bar might not be that high. If the little customer service chat with my bank behaves like a person, isn't it as good?

I postulates a system that would pass a turring like test but argues that there isn't any component of that system that has 'understanding' to which the general response is that it is the combined system which 'understands'.
