The challenge here is in trying to decide whether LLMs are intelligent or have a mind. Famously, the criteria for intelligence seem to slip with each advancement in technology. But going back to Turing, his test was actually more carefully phrased than we remember: he said that when machines could pass the test, the question of whether they are intelligent would become moot. That seems to be what we're actually seeing: if people can't tell the difference, it kind of won't matter whether they're "truly intelligent" or not.
That is the point of the article. People who are fooled by a mentalist are also fooled by AI. Additionally, people who are invested in AI also pretend to be fooled.
I don't think Turing intended the judges in the test to be completely arbitrary people.
