Bot/AI testing quiz?

Submitted by Elboy on May 11, 2026
Do you think JetPunk quizzes could be used to train a bot/AI?

Not that I would like to do so -I would not even know where to start!- but I have doubts about one of my quizzes, which is getting incredible takes every day.

So I wonder if this could be taken by AI or bots. Or just maybe some users are crazy about this particular quiz and take it / share it.

Which quiz is it? I noticed a huge uptick in my borderless Europe quiz and it seemed a little suspicious to me. It randomly got about 15k takes a couple weeks ago and has been slowly going down since.

This one.

I'm proud of this quiz, but the hype seems excessive compared to what I've experienced on JP for years.

But maybe it's just that the quiz is addictive ;)

I actually noticed one of my students doing this quiz a week ago. Maybe they're grinding it for a perfect score!

I happen to have also taken that quiz recently (if I'm not mistaken)

There are some days where some of my quizzes get an absurdly high amount of takes. I remember once one of my quizzes was featured in a youtube video, perhaps that's the case?

Yeah that's a possibility. I would definitely prefer this to AI training!

I don't think there would be any training value for a bot. We also block bots with Super Bot Fight mode on Cloudflare, although this is not 100% effective.

I've never seen any evidence that bots are taking quizzes.

OK, that's reassuring. Thanks for your reply.

So the good news is that real humans take this quiz! Big thanks to them!

The bad news is I'm getting paranoid :'D

I don't really see the point. I mean, the model could be trained on quizzes. Everything is indexed, so it seems more than probable. But trained by taking the quizzes? Definitely not. They don't need to take them. So even if they are used in a way, it would clearly not result in takes imo.

Unless they’re training AI to become generally intelligent using shape recognition. 🤔

Of course the point cannot be training bot for taking quizzes, but in the present case to recognize similar things, the same way AI learns from our captcha resolutions.
