N2  - It is important to understand that the Turing Test (TT) is not, nor was it intended to be, a trick; how well one can fool someone
is not a measure of scientific progress. The TT is an empirical criterion: It sets AI's empirical goal to be to generate human-scale
performance capacity. This goal will be met when the candidate's performance is totally indistinguishable from a human's. Until
then, the TT simply represents what it is that AI must endeavor eventually to accomplish scientifically.
