I think AI could get close.

Come to think of it, why not just use some CCTV feed data from some busy street scene?

The set of integers alone is infinite. So a true random number might take weeks or years to even mention.

The best random number generator that I know of is Joe Biden’s brain.

Then there are the "white noise generators" that use diodes to generate random sequences, at a fast clip. I've seen the analysis of such generators and, while not absolutely perfect, can be good enough for many applications, including Monte Carlo applications.

You get a marginal improvement when you use cosmic rays, or emissions from radioactive material.

I always use a nice cup of really hot tea as a Brownian motion producer to drive my Finite Improbability Generator. It's a great ice breaker at parties.
