Show HN: How clanker are you? A reverse Turing test
You write 8 text completions and open models score how predictable each word was too them. Predictable => clanker. You can share results with your friends.
The scoring checks every word you write against the model's logprobs. Right now I'm using Llama3.1, Deepseek v3 and Qwen3 to keep costs low. I tried to calibrate it so other models (chatgpt/claude) score 100% and interesting human responses score in the 10-30% range.

- niklio 3mo agoThe metric used is per-word surprisal: -logprob of each word you type. This is just the same thing as per-word cross entropy or KL-divergence where the user distribution is one-hot. Calibrating it so text generated by frontier models scored poorly was a challenge at first. Originally ChatGPT was scoring around 54%. I'm still having trouble assigning high scores to the personalized Gemini and ChatGPT responses when I'm logged in because all my personal context gives surprising responses. And yes, gibberish responses score very human :)
- TheJCDenton 3mo agoFunny little game, would be even funnier to have a system to roast the prose of a friend on social media or even a screenshot
- niklio 3mo agoThanks! That's a great idea - i'll top up my fable budget and get started :)
- sightspinner 3mo ago85 percentile. Mostly, I assume, because I like coffee.
- niklio 2mo agoThe robots love coffee so this is a major red flag
- Goo6i 3mo agoholy the AI brainrot is real lmao apparently I'm 55% clanker. probably cause english isn't my first language and I learn mostly by reading. dead internet theory? I like this alot thanks
- niklio 3mo agoThe calibration is set up to get some variation between humans. Dario's brainrot is even worse than yours: https://howclankerareyou.com/r/DarioAmodei https://howclankerareyou.com/r/DarioAmodei
- gistrec 2mo agoOmg, I am a 100% clanker Beep boop
- niklio 2mo agobeep boop, congrats on the high score

- niklio 2mo agoSounds like a good next project!
