I'm not the person you asked, but I think:

1. Minds are machines and can (in principle) have their operation duplicated

2. LLMs are not doing this

I don't think so, because LLMs hallucinate by design, which will always produce oddities.

> Before flight was understood some thought "magic" was involved. Do you think minds operate using "magic"? Are minds not machines? Their operation can not be duplicated?

Might involve something we don't grasp, but despite that: only because something moves through air it's not flying and will never be, just like a thrown stone.

Maybe current LLMs can do that. But none are, so it hasn't passed. Whether that's because of economic or marketing reasons as opposed to technical does not matter. You still have to pass the test before we can definitely say you've passed the test.
