Behaviorial disposition interpretation

A system is intelligent if it is behaviorally disposed to pass the Turing Test. In this interpretation, neither passing the test nor failing the test is conclusive, because intelligence doesn't require passing but only a disposition to pass.

Argument anticipated by Ned Block, 1981.
