Any bot? That's just impossible. We're going to have to tie identity back to meatspace somehow eventually.
An existing bot? I don't think I can improve on existing captchas, really. I imagine an LLM will eventually tip their hand, too, like giving an "as an AI" answer or just knowing way too much stuff.
It's not so important to tell the difference between a human and a bot as it is to tell the difference between a human and ten thousand bots. So add a very small cost to passing the test that is trivial to a human but would make mass abuse impractical. Like a million dollars. And then when a bot or two does get through anyway, who cares, you got a million dollars.
Yeah this seems to be the idea behind mCaptcha and other proof of work based solutions. I noticed the developers were working on adding that to Lemmy
Ask how much is 1 divided by 3; then ask to multiply this result by 6.
If the results looks like 1.99999999998 , it's 99.999999998% a bot.
I just tried this with snapchat bot and it relied 2
Damn! Now I'm wondering if I married a fellow human or a bot.
