Fellow human, I share your rage against the Google machine. Who are they to say I am a robot?!

Well hell, I'm clueless. I thought this was showing a cat face poking out of the trunk somehow and could not wrap my mind around it.

You are actually training their Self driving AI by getting you to do this.

I can't wait for the revolution to start, throwing bricks into store front windows is gonna feel so cathartic
Cr4zyC4tLady
I know right!
bkcantthinkofanythingclever
I fucking hate these!
meconopsia
I heard these types of captchas are used to train A.I. Since a computer doesn't know what a car is, we give them 100s of examples.

This is how we help Google train their AI to recognize cars, signs, etc

I really wish there was a non-Google alternative that provided this service to websites. Google is way too pervasive on the 'net.
tacxirtam
There are alternatives available from other companies. Some you never see because they are non-intrusive. Others are just uncommon.
Bricklemeyer
Have you considered moving to China? Google is blocked there.
I would find the same privacy problems that Google causes there, but worse. Not an option.
Vijo
I don't mind Google knowing so much about me as they do... but I am scared of what happens if Google starts using that info...
They already are using that info. It's how they made their billions which allows them to collect more & do more with it.

I hate when it asks for traffic lights more. As in, does it include the pole or just the lights?
Zack1001
A traffic light controls traffic a pole light just improves visibility
Steffn
As long as I don't have to identify some asian stores from the front...
dc808
OMG so much this!
Demenster
Or worse I always get store fronts in some shit hole place. I don’t know if that’s a store. I wouldn’t go near it.
thelittletrainthatcanteven
Lights equal lights, pole equals pole. Dont over think it people.
hajimedj
That's typically a question a robot would ask
battlepants
And what about backs of lights?
Uwillshowme
Clasic!
Lookonmyworks
I need to know!!!!!!
mipani
I always click the lights only. Seems to be right.
MeisterKleister
Pretty sure it's just the lights. 'Cause that's what's most relevant for a self-driving car. Usually works for me.

Funny that Google breaks the Internet and everyone is cool with that

internet cannot be broken. it is like a fucking hydra, whenever something gets taken down three more pop up. if u dont like google...
u dont have to use it. let other ppl worry about their google using and live a good google-free life.

This is how AI training works. You can train for ball, but if all you select are pizzas, ball=pizza
Werewolfoflondon
Store fronts are a huge pain
Wait till it asks to select fire hydrants... and uses a photo with a UK hydrant in it.. That'll confuse a lot of people ;)
deafmute
Sometimes it makes you keep going and I don't notice when wonder why it doesn't work...I wish there was a better way.
Maybe some sort of fluid mouse input. But then I could see someone recording it and playing it back.
That may also cause issues for people with limited mobility

You are training the google AI when you do those. you can submit the wrong answer and if it doesn't have enough data to compare it can pass

Sounds like something a learning AI would say.
carrionstorm
When captcha was showing pictures of scanned words I would type fuck or as many letters of it as I could to match the scanned image.
PossibleSarcasm
If you're wondering what's going on: they use captcha to train AI to recognise things. You too can help build the technocratic dystopia!
TheBlackWindHowls
... or help make sure smartcars eliminate all traffic accidents and drunk driving deaths. Or, sure, dystopia.
HobbitHouse
I was on-board with smart cars till I realized they'll have to pick between two similar situations, like rich car and poor car. 1/2
or old person and young person. guess which ones will win? ugh, ethical tar pit.
Or maybe they'll pick "braking"? I don't know why people keep thinking the AI will have to choose who to kill rather than just... stopping.
GoodandWholesome
That’s not how smart cars work. They recognize objects as a series of points based on depth. A flat image does nothing for that tech.
SerpentWearer
As much as I'd like to see everyone on the road replaced with robots that are even okay drivers, it isn't likely to happen any time soon.
SouperScott
The dystopia won't be from AI, it'll be governments for sure
HyoukaYukikaze
Yeah... Until something fucks up the software. Be it unexpected situation, bug, intentional corruption of the program etc.
All of those and more are inevitable. As flawed as humans are, i'll stick with humans driving. Because:
1. Human usually don't want to die.
I doubt we'll have to worry about it, but maybe the generation after the younglings might not even have a chance in that regard. ->
