"You're absolutely right!"
I think for a while the test was passed. Then we learned the hallmark characteristics of these models, and now most of us can easily differentiate. That said -- these models are programmed specifically to be more helpful, more articulate, more friendly, and more verbose than people, so that may not be a fair expectation. Even so, I think if you took all of that away, you'd be able to differentiate the two, it just might take longer.
Right. I think the modern LLMs are quite good at mimicking human words, but we were initially taken in like we were in the 1960s by ELIZA. It’s a (increasingly sophisticated) magic trick, but it’s just a trick.
