If the topic of conversation isn't restricted, it is very easy to distinguish
between any AI currently in existence and a normal human. Natural language
processing is a *way* harder problem than, for example, computer Go, and even
Go programs have severe weaknesses today and play a relatively weak game on the
whole...

I agree that it will be the case some day. But I think the task of building an
AI as versatile as a human is *immensely* hard.
