You keep assuming something about the turing test that is simply not the case. The Turing test has nothing to do with usefulness it doesn't even have to be correct. It just has to fool you into believing it's human.

You are talking about your own metrics, fine but it's not what the test is about. I too hear Searles Chinese Room argument in your basic rant.

And yes of course there are many useful things that can come out of something like this such as phishing attacks, hacking, honeypots even toys for kids.
