When people informally say something "beat the Turing Test," that has little to do with Turing's proposed imitation game, which is more of an interactive party game like Werewolf.
It's kind of a weird benchmark. I think it's better to think of it as just another challenging game for AI researchers to try to beat, like chess or Go or Diplomacy. Like those other games, how tough it is to beat will depend on the human players. I think a proper test would be to play against skilled human players who have practiced.
