I don't think there will be concise definitions for the terms "sentience" "consciousness" and "intelligence", as they seem to have multiple components (self-awareness, theory of mind, language, common sense, reasoning, understanding...) and degree (to what extent do other animals possess these abilities? What might our now-extinct primate ancestors and their relatives have had?) The Turing test tacitly assumes that not only will we know it when we see it, but also that we could tell from relatively short conversations. These recent developments suggest this will not be the case, and I feel that they show us something about ourselves (I'm not sure exactly what, other than that we can be tricked by quite conceptually simple language models.)
