Ever wonder why these captchas are always cars, bicycles, motorcycles, traffic lights and crosswalks? Because YOU are doing the work of teaching the next generation of AI for self-driving cars.

Can’t wait until we get trolley problem CAPTCHAs and we have to choose the square with the most expendable human lives
How does it know when it’s right if you’re the one teaching it?
You and many other humans are doing verification work
It's pretty sure it's already right, but if enough people get the same image and get it wrong the same way then something's up, flag it
My favorite is when it asks me to identify stairs. I just imagine a self-driving car mistaking a set of stairs as more road and deciding to try and climb the steps.
Actually, it's training a self-driving humanoid robot that's supposed to climb stairs in order to terminate any potential John Connor that's inside a house upstairs.
There are three lights!
No, four!!!
Can LLMs learn art appreciation?
i really wish quote tweets (xeets? skeets? yeets?) would put the original post above the response...
It takes an extra second or two, but I’ve been using speech-to-text on the audio option. Instead of a chore, it’s an exploit! (Not really but your dopamine doesn’t have to know that)
Ceci n'est pas un signe
That is not a painting by Magritte.
Am I the only one who has to do like 12 of these in a row before my humanity is recognized? Beyond mildly inconvenient, it's downright annoying now.
Edit: I use Mullvad + Firefox + Betterfox + uBO. I don't think my setup is that sophisticated lmao
It's because you are using a VPN. You always get a ton more captchas when using a VPN on some websites. Mainly because they don't want you using one, so you can be tracked for ads.
If you use ad blockers and/or vpn they will just gaslight you forever.
Please select all squares containing a gaslight.
IPv6 tunnels too :/
You aren't the only one. I don't bother solving them anymore because of this nonsense. I simply close the tab.
I just use an extension to solve it, that I was told about on here. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/buster-captcha-solver/ if it can't solve it, just hit refresh, and try again.
Humans outsourcing human checks to bots because it's too annoying to prove they are human. We've fallen so far.
After 2, I say "fuck it" and find a different option.
Works as long as it's not your bank or something
Look, I know I probably have an account balance, and it's probably positive... What else is there to know?
find a different bank >:)

After I started using a VPN it's way too annoying to try and pass it. I use the audio alternative when possible. If not I kinda just give up lol
imo thats unusual.
i usually need to do 3 at most.
do you use a vpn or something like that?
VPN and strong anti fingerprinting probably.
I burned off my fingerprints so maybe that's why.
It must be the VPN. Just about every site I visit is worse now. Several times I've visited a sites and just been outright denied entry if I don't turn my VPN off. And I Alt + Left the fuck out of them.
Same. Every time I get a captcha I remember it's because I don't have Google sitting on my shoulder watching literally every move I make on my browser.
This may have changed since they seem to alter how these things work from time to time, but I’ve found that if you just keep getting one captcha after another, and you know you’re not making errors, try solving them slowly.
If it has an error it will keep asking you for more forever.
It’s best to refresh the page if you get more than a couple.
Things synths says
If i try to pretend im a human it goes faster. Fidget with the mouse, hesitate and make a few small mistakes.
Those are used to train AI, so my guess is there are some kinds of quotas that they have to make within a certain time and when they underperform they just increase the load on each user.

CAPTCHAs should be renamed Human Gaslighters
It's being heavily impacted by AI as well, since the "correct" answer is chosen democratically so if enough bots are answering captchas then they choose whats correct and it becomes better at verifying botity than humanity.
There are four lights!
Yes yes, and 2+2=4 and you hate Big Brother. Now hold still while we put this rat cage on your head.

Ok what parts of this would actually count? Do the corners in the 2 panels count? I've had to try this version of captcha again so many times
I think it'd only be 2 squares for the rectangle of the traffic light.
I've been doing a lot of captchas lately and they always seem to want less outer edge than I expect as a probably human. Like if only a small corner of a bus is in a tile, I just ignore it.
