I’m pretty sure that’s always what capchas were for… training ai image recognition.
They just also use it as security theater.
Rate limiting
Lol Jdownloader will just solve your captchas automatically as it hits the sites that require it.
But it should be lower case “p” at the end
Capchas aren’t generally case sensitive though.
They’re not? Doesn’t that make them less effective?
Probably? I’m no expert but I always answer with just lower case without issue
Less effective in what way? The actual answer is their use for training AI isn’t as good, but that’s not what I think you (or most other people) mean. The main use of them is to train AI via humans, the security is secondary and just a smart way to get free work.
Depends. I know that Microsoft changed to non-case sensitive not terribly long ago (for things like testexchangeconnectivity).
Back to looking for images with fire hydrants and ducks then.
And bicycles.
Tin foil hat theory: the oil lobby loves encouraging the use of bicycles for captchas because no matter what, there’s always part of the rim of the grainy ass photo just barely sticking into the other square, making you keep locating the fucking bicycles for hours on end, with the hopes that you absolutely hate the sight of them after you’ve developed PTSD from just trying to visit a stupid website to read something. God damn fucking bicycle captchas.
Now I want a bicycle
Oh fuck, we’re doomed
This came out a few months ago, right? A bit after chat gpt was tricking people into doing captchas for it.
