Isn't it conceivable that an entity can't convincingly act human even though he is more intelligent? Chess programs play better than most of the chess playing population, but they can't pass a Turing test even if input/output is limited to chess moves. In the future, when computers are better than any human, they still won't pass such a test, but nevertheless they will be more intelligent when it comes to chess, won't they?
