OTOH, if you mean that it's difficult to tell a really intelligent AGI mind from a complex, multi-component chat system like the one we demonstrated in Xiamen ... I don't think that's true. For a few minutes, a good chatbot can impersonate a smart mind (especially if that few minutes is cherry-picked after the fact!!).... But no chatbot can do that for a few hours...
To go beyond being a cherry picked chatbot dialogue there are all sorts of cognitive features which the robot would need, such as the ability to mentally keep track of other individuals, recognise "events" and order them into some sort of articulable description of itself and the world, and that presupposes quite well developed perception systems for processing the flow of sensory or proprioceptive stimuli.
Some things which I've been thinking about in relation to this are how are "events" detected (the answer seems to be that they're mostly socially/historically defined) and given a bunch of remembered events how might it be possible to convert them into a story.
