What Turing missed is the presence of emotion in human dialogue, without expression of which, an entity could appear non-human. His idea, that once a machine deceives a human judge into believing that they are the human, then that machine should be attributed with intelligence. So conceived Alan Turing when he introduced a machine into the game.
