here's a spicy take: maybe the Turing test was always going to end up being the evaluation of the evaluator. much like nobody is really bringing up the providence of stylometry, kinaesthetics, & NLP embeddings as precursors to the next generation of IQ test (which is likely to be as obsolete as the Turing test). There's plenty of pathology for PC vs NPC mindsets. Nobody is going to think their conversational partner is the main character of their story. There's just a popcorn-worthy cultural shift about the blackbox having the empathy or intelligence to satisfy the main character/ epic hero trope, and the resulting conflict of words & other things to resist the blackbox from having enough resources to iterate the trope past human definition.
