Human-generated 'random' bits?

Submitted by twovests in programming

Hi y'all, I'm looking for large amounts of human-generated bits, preferably from people who were asked to create 'random' sequences of 1s and 0s.

I could just sit down here and do it myself but I was wondering if such resources already existed. I wanted to use them to create a bad random number generator, to test various algorithms to predict the next bit, and more. I haven't been able to find anything though. Anybody have any ideas?

I dunno why exactly you're interested in this but there's been a decent amount of research on humans generating "random" numbers if you're interested in the subject. Check out this stackexchange answer for kind of the gist of it and some cited sources if you want to dive deeper https://psychology.stackexchange.com/a/3592

It should be easy enough to build a server to ask people to generate data for you.
