If only ReCaptcha and the other captcha services used more Therian-inclusive language.

I got one of these today. I still don't understand wtf it meant.

It has overpping objects that you look for and tap any instance of. In this case it's cookie or penguin, with the penguin below being the answer

The horse eating a burger is my favorite.

Or the shortest lifespan.

Or whatever this is...

First one I guess click on the horses? Second one I’d click the burger. Third one I’d enter 9 because the lions are wearing t shirts.

I suspect the first and last captchas gave the image AI a prompt of 2 random nouns from a list.

I hate these in particular. Some of the images are so trippy I don't even know if they're cookies or wtf

[–] tdawg@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Click the example. Solved

Remember when the web used to be beautiful or at least neat and unique?

[–] DashboTreeFrog@discuss.online 13 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Hallucinations leaking into captchas? This could be fun.

I get it probably wants the cat cookies but that example is probably AI, right?

[–] Hope@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

I think it's gotta be. I'm guessing it takes the descriptions of some images, and feeds them into a text to image ai for the example to use?

hcaptcha is almost entirely AI generated content these days.

[–] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The sad part is that these don't really stop bots, captcha solver services have bot accessible APIs which can be used to solve these things for malicious actors, they pay real people pennies to solve them and sell it as a service. Similar to click farms.

Yet they expect us to praise them for it and excuse them treating us like criminals when the criminals have easier access than we do. Fuck that, reCaptcha is useless for its intended purpose, and anyone who says otherwise or excuses its usage is a shill or an idiot. Sometimes I think about paying for a captcha solving service myself to be able to skip them when they get annoying. If they continue to get worse I might do that, and I'd encourage others to do the same if they desire to.

It's intended purpose is AI training for images...

[–] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

Yeah, the fighting bots thing is an excuse to get us to work for them for free.
