This is just an idea, but I see that some instance prevent bots from bypassing the registration step by asking unexpected questions like "are you human?". Apparently this is the type of question that can easily discern a human answer from a chatGPT answer. So what if the admin of an instance changed the question asked for registration application every few days? Something like " What did you hit for break f4st? " would give bot proof applications and the answers would likely give the admin a good laugh. Not 100% effective of course, but would help for the time being.

I'm not an expert but this seems a cool way to handle Bots, not regarding something they're unable to do but something they do too well ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘Œ
