And because of their failure to pass a first year arithmetic test we
would saythata rock, an octopus and a three year old child are not
behaving very intelligently.
*In case you've forgotten, the Turing test was based on text only
communication between an interlocutor asked to distinguish between a
computer pretending to be a human and a man or woman pretending to be a
woman or man. It's already been passed by some LLM's by dumbing-down
their response. It may be all you've got but it's a very poor test that
can't tell the difference between a 3yr old and a rock.

But as I said before, the Turing Test is not perfect, however it's all
we've got. If something passes the test then it's intelligent and
conscious. If fails the test then it may or may not be intelligent and
or conscious
