No level of capability is enough to convince some people it's not just a stochastic parrot. You're completely right on the Turing test. At this point it's just a matter of how long it could fool us. You have to remember it's not specifically trained to fool us either, it's trained through RLHF to be verbose and "helpful". If you train it right and add in some RAG (vector databases) I think you could fool most people for a pretty long time, some gullible people forever.
