I personally agree with your comment (assuming I understand it correctly). As far as I can tell, however, some people believe that merely being able to converse with humans on their own level is not sufficient to establish the agent's ability to think on the human level. I personally think this belief is misguided, since it privileges implementation details over function, but I could always be wrong.
