The idea of a reverse Turing Test ("prove to me you are a machine") has been rattling around for a while but AFAIK nobody's really come up with a good one

Solve a bunch of math problems really fast? They don't have to be complex, as long as they're completed far quicker than a person typing could manage.

Maybe asking how it reacts to a turtle on it's back in the desert? Then asking about it's mother?

Seems fundamentally impossible. From the other end of the connection, a machine acting on its own is indistinguishable from a machine acting on behalf of a person who can take over after it passes the challenge.

I'm sure most people are looking for serious takes on this, but here are two SMBC comics on this specific theme ("prove you are a robot"):

which may be either funner or scarier in light of the actual existence of Moltbook.
