Claude Opus 4.8 one-shotted it... I think we should gear these systems towards making the cost of abuse expensive as they will be able to get around these things more and more easily.
Is there reason to believe this is a good discriminator of human vs AI? I didn't see any about page, or statistic, or anything like that, but maybe I'm just missing it?

Reverse captcha: only robots can reprove one of the Euler problems on the fly? Statistically speaking we can round the people who can into the outlier group, right?
Yup. I could guess what needs to be grabbed without reading the prompt because it was always the front-most object. It also has the largest grab area; some of the plushies can't even be grabbed.
I'm tired of constantly having to prove I'm a human. Especially if it's trying to be lighthearted and fun on the surface, it just reminds me how Internet has fallen.
Imagine you get pwned for trying this out in your home project and the APT escalates to your company repos and infects your company assets, and then the post mortem comes in and you have to explain this is what infected the company it stack
If it is DNA then why would I need a claw machine? (Note that this defnition on DNA, which in itself is mega-odd since DNA differs, would mean that via synthetic biology one could yield humans - according to such a definition. But this does not have to be correct, so the definition would be flawed.)
Time and time again, I prove that I'm human by giving this crap the finger and then visiting some other site. It's calling out a false positive and then exercising good taste.

It requires you to solve a mate-in-one puzzle to, e.g., post on the forums.
(Sorry, don't have a better link, there wasn't any non-technical I could find about it).

Also when you move the claw left and right, it "leans" in the wrong direction.
Fun idea though
A human would be incredibly suspicious of this.
phpboard added captchas back in 2004.

If it is not DNA, how else to prove it?
