A CAPTCHA with 16 squares in a grid asking the user to select those with a motorcycle in them. The picture shows two people riding a motorcycle but, behind them, is a sign painted in red on a white wall that, although incomplete, would read "Juventus".

Today's test of my humanity got me wondering: why don't we have CAPTCHAs that ask us to select all square with hand-painted signs in them? Or with ghost signs, or with a sign painter working, or with a mahl stick?

The time has come to end the motorcycle's […]

The Curious Case of the Bizarre, Disappearing Captcha While puzzling captchas—from dogs in hats to sliding jockstraps—still exist, most bot-deterring challenges have vanished into the background.

I hadn’t noticed until I came across this piece - there really are far fewer CAPTCHAs around these days! Maybe AI’s just too good at cracking them, and there’s no real alternative. Funny how most of us didn’t even notice.

ChatGPT Agent Mode Can Solve CAPTCHAs, Raising Spam Concerns

Researchers at SPLX showed that ChatGPT’s Agent mode can solve CAPTCHA challenges via prompt injection, treating the test as a trivial request and bypassing typical bot defenses. getnews.me/chatgpt-agent-mode-can-s... #chatgpt #captchas #aiexploit

Meme done in the style of a login screen. It reads, "Thank you for your interest in the internet. Please type the correct sequence of characters into the field below." Under that are two "Captcha"-looking blocked texts. One reads "then" and the other reads "than." Under that, some text reads, "I would rather be hugged [blank] eaten." Meme text reads, "So many people would be unable to use the internet again."

“Knock knock.”

“Who’s there?”

“To.”

“To who?”

As somebody with (genuine) OCD, how are we supposed to approach captchas where you have to select the squares containing a specific item?

My logical brain is inclined to select all squares containing any fraction of eg a motorcycle.

But a more "human" response might ignore those?

A screenshot of a Captcha that says to select all images with bicycles. There are nine squares, each containing a photo. Three squares are selected because they contain photos of bicycles. Other photos contain other modes of transport (a bus, cars) or no means of transport. One square contains a photo of a bike lane sign with a diagram of a bike on it. Does that count as a bicycle?

Does a picture of a bicycle on a sign count as a bicycle in a Captcha?

I still don't know: by the time I'd took the screenshot and finished faffing about with it, the Captcha had timed out.

#Captchas always amazed me because they appeared without any fanfarres and yet they are an important part of the #web. It feels like they become an entity of their own - like a guardian of a portal or tower. It is an automaton, but I imagined it like a riddler.

O fim dos captchas? Bots superam testes de segurança com inteligência artificial A eficácia dos captchas está em queda, com a inteligência artificial (IA) agora capaz de superá-los com impressionante precisão.

Captchas, que pedem para selecionar imagens, sempre foram uma forma irritante, mas necessária.
Estudos recentes mostram que modelos de aprendizado de máquina, podem resolver captchas com 100% de acerto.
