Turing test is a red herring. What property does it test? Humanity? Do we really believe only a human is worth attention? Not really, we are fascinated by animals and even machines. Or are only humans worth being scared of? Clearly not, gray goo is a frightening concept, even though it's in no way human. Or is it "consciousness"? But a baby doesn't pass the Turing test. Assuming that babies are even "conscious", whatever that means. We have pretty amazing "AI" already, but applying a Turing test to see if it's intelligent makes as much sense as judging a human by the ability to multiply matrices. The machine learning models are noteworthy for what they already are.
