I read the paper -- nothing terribly interesting, but it does provide
empirical validation that

a) it is quite possible to do a Turing Test type simulation with kids aged
as young as 5

b) current AI programs (at least the chat bots they tried out in their
experiment) can't pass this Turing test

So it validates that a childrens' Turing Test starting at age 5 is not a
stupid or unworkable idea.

Of course, the extent to which is is a *valuable* idea is another story ...
