Ask it to come up with some crossword clues and answers... not good with counting letters in a word...

give me an anagram of "brian eno"
An anagram of "Brian Eno" is "Bonnie Era."

perhaps, idk, you could you could link it to an anagram generator so instead of only copying shit it's seen before, it could create actual anagrams. but you couldn't do that for every trivial task - indeed you could always come up with another trivial task, which the only way to successfully complete would be to UNDERSTAND THE ACTUAL FUCKING QUESTION
replace every other letter, starting with the first letter, in the word 'exponentially' with an 'x'
Sure, replacing every other letter, starting with the first letter 'e', with an 'x' in the word 'exponentially' would result in:"x x p o n x n t x a l l y"

I haven't played with it in a while, but chatgpt was fascinatingly bad at attempting to write blank verse - this is a bit under a year ago:

I tried it with maybe Claude or the Google one lately and it blew out in just the same way. I find it fascinating that it's got these statistical clusters that it almost can't escape, like that's its ontology - a poem is a rhymed object.
'make a list of random words' is also a fascinating test - it's profoundly non-random and seems (for semi-obvious reasons) drawn to the kind of words that are 'interesting', or would turn up in a 'post the most random word' thread on a forum. This was basically 'list 200 random words':

note the repeats too, eg xylophone

If you asked a human to name 200 random words I doubt it would be particularly different from that list though, randomness is not something people are actually good at, so in that sense AI is approximating human thinking pretty well.

but to get back to something mentioned a bit earlier, crossword clues are an example of something that takes a lot of creative thinking and seems like something that is still a way off from being possible for an LLM and solving an average crossword puzzle is something that I doubt is currently possible for any version of AI currently other than through brute force

if you correct chatgpt ona mistake, it tends to give a serviceable apology and try again. if you don't correct it and just leave it be, it says nothing
but what if they gave the AI an anxious attachment personality type and if you leave the chat open for more than 15 minutes without acknowledging its answer, it gets all antsy and starts asking you if it was up to standard, then emailing "second thoughts" and asking for feedback that night

Deliberately simulating fatigue could be a diabolical way to induce more in-game purchases of virtual coffee for your AI personal assistant!
In that vein, I think all the pieces are in place for a fully autonomous bot to search, apply for, interview, and perform a gig/job meant for a human, but I think this has yet to ever have been demonstrated? People have been "outsourcing" their own work to programs for awhile, but there's always been some human tailoring and intervention involved at some stage of the scam. Maybe an extended version of this test is for the package to set up its own bank account for payment (likely with forged credentials), effectively attaining true recognized worker-hood, if not personhood.
Turing Taskrabbit Test?

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak suggested the coffee test, whereby a robot would be challenged to enter your home, find the kitchen and brew a cup of coffee. The programme should be able to walk into any kitchen, find the ingredients required and then perform the task of making a coffee.
I might and did fail this test.
