Turing didn't invent the "Turing Test", he just pointed out something that was ancient, that we use everyday, and was so accepted and ubiquitous that nobody had given it much thought before. I'm sure you, just like everybody else, has at one time or another in your life encountered people who you consider to be brilliant and people who you consider to be stupid, when making your determination, if you did not use the Turing Test (which is basically just observing behavior and judging if it's intelligent ) what method did you use ? How in the world can you judge if something is intelligent or not except by observing if it does anything intelligent?
