This is exactly what I've been thinking. Above mentioned conversation is so rich that a lot of humans couldn't follow it in such a manner. And yet, there wouldn't be any doubts when talking with them face to face. Is this the right test after all? Or rather the question is, what are we testing actually? It seems to be nothing more than a mimicking human behavior. In this case - very smart and eloquent human. And this is exactly what Turing test is[1]. But does AI need to be able to follow such sophisticated dialogue to be considered an independent, self aware being?
