Looking at discussion around this incident made me realize: pondering 'can a machine think' leads to vague debates because we don't know how to define thinking or consciousness even in humans. But a more pressing risk than sentient AI is people drawing runaway conclusions from interacting with a machine. Whether it's this guy losing his job, or future movements for-or-against certain technology, the first major problems with 'AI' will be the behavior resulting from moral stances taken by humans, not by machines.
