I've had a profound realization playing with #GPT3.
The vast majority of people are basically running #GPT3. They speak, they utter sentences, but they mostly copy what other people say & have very little critical thinking. But they're good at babbling.
Most people are NPCs.

Yes, a big issue with arguments about "is GPT3 conscious/sentient" is that it glosses over "are most people conscious/sentient"

This is why the Turing test does not really test for artificial intelligence. A true test for AI would look more like the slave part of Plato's Meno dialogue. Can an AI synthesize a solution concept to a novel problem without being told the answer?

The Turing test isn't a well conceived test. Why would evolution leave humans with the ability to distinguish between the input of a human and a computer program through text alone? There's no analogous problem in nature.

That one is actually pretty easy. (this ties in to the original topic - it's easy because we have social modules for dealing with women and with men and we notice the misfire if you apply the wrong one - for that, there is an evolved solution that works in favor of it)
