This is a misunderstanding of what the Turing test really is for.
The test is not about when an AI becomes sentient, but at what point we can't tell anymore. And we are long past that second part.
The problem coming now is that when a sentient AI comes along, there will still be those that say "nono, we know how it works" and we end up in a Westworld scenario.

AI is going to do more to humanity than the internet did. Our ability to foresee what issues are incoming will be as good as those 80s explanations on what the internet was going to do. We will get some basics right, but then miss on the major changes it will bring.

Would like to know this as well, not just how often it detects, but how many false positives and how much change it has had over the last year (is it learning, or are they using a static model)

There is a root problem with all these worries, that also comes up in most future problems projections (gray goo, human mind uploading etc).
If we come to a point where we can change someone DNA with a injection, and this ejection can continue on in the germ line. We have the technology to change it back again, because it's the same technology we used to cause the problem.
Everyone fear mongers in the idea that the scenario happens now to someone, and everyone else is stuck with our current technology.

Algae bloom is maybe a good thing får out in the ocean, but bad if close to the shore.
However, testing this out is geo-engineering, and banned across the globe.
So until we get some rogue nation willing to run the tests and do the science, we will not know.

Technically not, but also dragging anyone in is also against the law, so this is an issue for the courts and China can shut down their embassy if they feel they are not getting justice.

Reply to World’s fastest internet network has been upgraded to mind-boggling 46 Terabit/s | Even if you're on a 10 Gbps fiber connection, ESnet6 has you beat 46,000 times over. by chrisdh79
The bottlenecks would not be the internet, but the router, my ethernet connection, my internal components, all who max out far below 46tb/s.

Reply to comment by Schemati in Researchers tested a large sample of the prominent major AI technologies available today and found not only did they reproduce human biases in the recognition of facial age, but they exaggerated those biases by giuliomagnifico
So what is the result you want? A machine that can tell your age, or a machine that understands that age is just a number?
The reason it ended up like this was that we did not currate the input to give an output that fit ideal output.
It's not garbage data, it's human data. Maybe humans are garbage, but just wait till it starts touching more human taste and preferences, like intelligence or beauty. We will get real mad at those results.
