captcha is not just text recognition but also testing input patterns. even the fastest typing human would have measurable discrepancies in their inputs that a computer wouldnt have
ReCaptcha has been about training text recognition from the start. It would present a known scrambled word (for the actual test) and an unknown word to crowdsource tasks like digitizing the New York Times library.
As we trained the tools better so computers could recognize text more often, new tests like "click on all the bicycles" were brought in, for the same purpose.

Well damn. It just failed the p not being uppercase. We're screwed.

We've just been training it to recognize bicycles, crosswalks, and fire hydrants this whole time.

The only time AI is correct is when it shouldn't be...

The last character should be p, not P. But yeah.

Ha! Now we can look forward to Captcha evolving into something even more annoying.

And with bot traffic having surpassed human traffic on the internet, captchas like these are becoming even less worthwhile

I’ve seen some “select all unicorns” but the pics are mostly horses and narwhals
