The Turing test and game-playing AI show that to compete with humans, machines need to understand human behavior and adapt to it. This understanding is what allowed AI to achieve superhuman performance in games like chess and Go.

Summary
In order for machines to compete with humans, they must understand and adapt to the human way of playing the game, not just rely on their machine-like approach. While a chess-playing program may not need to mimic a human to beat one in a chess match, other games and interactions may require a deeper understanding of human behavior.

The true measurement of an AI's game performance is achieved by sticking it in games with varying skill levels to test whether it performs better than a strong or expert human player.

Summary
The true measurement of an AI's game performance is achieved by sticking it in games with varying skill levels to test whether it performs better than a strong or expert human player. This concept is similar to developing a self-driving car that should be tested on the road with non-expert drivers.
