Fridge fridge hamburger truck truck... ??? What's the blue thing? I thought hamburger would be the answer, but it isn't? I just get the same captcha with the hamburger in a different place. WTAF is happening? And what's the blue thing? I answer and it refreshes with the same icons in different places. I AM HUMAN!

You can’t even see what brand the fridge is! What a stupid captcha.

If it’s a Samsung it’s definitely the one with the shortest lifespan.

Just ask ChatGPT; it's better than humans at proving its humanity with these stupid things.

I wouldn't be so sure, I asked bing:

Based on the whimsical nature of the objects described in the image, it's a bit challenging to determine the shortest lifespan as they are not typical living organisms. However, if we consider the objects metaphorically, the burger-shaped car might represent a food item, which typically has a shorter lifespan due to its perishable nature. In contrast, vehicles and cameras usually have longer lifespans as they are non-perishable goods. So, in the context of the CAPTCHA, you might consider selecting the burger-shaped car as the object with the shortest lifespan. Remember, CAPTCHAs can be subjective, and the correct answer may vary depending on the specific logic programmed into the test.

w/no prompt, GPT-4o:

To complete this CAPTCHA challenge, click on the hamburger in the image. Among the objects shown, the hamburger has the shortest lifespan.

If captchas are easily solveable by bots what is their point then?

They are using these as unpaid human labor to train the generator model. It's a cheap way to annoy users and hop on the dick of the latest ShitAii trend, so any manager with even a whiff of capitalism in their blood is jumping on it.

Captchas today are completely obsolete to avoid bots, more now with AI, since years and are just simple click ads from different companies since no one clicks on banner ads anymore. A simple Honeypot system or, as they do in some forums, waiting half an hour before sending the email with the account code, are much more efficient to avoid bots, without pissing off the user.

Well, this is actually the easy mode. On hard you see lettuce next to a politician's face.

Ugh, Rockstar and Blizzard have these super insane captchas where you have to solve puzzles 20 times in a fucking row without making a single mistake. They show the answer and then you have to flip through 6 images and choose the correct image matching the answer. Times 20! I just wanted to play GTA5, just gave up. Wasn't worth my time because it kept failing.

I ragequit the puzzles on the rockstar captcha. Incredibly infuriating. I was reminded of the famous greentext from way back predicting we'd have to drink a verification can of mountain dew and for a moment that seemed less insane than the reality of these impossible puzzles. Had to get someone to help me solve them after cooling off for a moment.

I actually haven't bothered anymore since that one evening. I haven't played GTA 5 in years and wanted to play the story a bit, but if this is how it is, then they can take their captchas and shove them in sideways.

This is 2024, if you want to play games you've purchased legally you have to crack them

[–] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

But this is just the crack? I'd need to be able to install the game first, but I can't log into the installer.

[–] EssentialNPC@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

Oh, I see your mistake. Those are Samsung fridges. Nothing has a shorter lifespan than a Samsung fridge. Since there are two they will die together to maximize the inconvenience factor, and they thus must be clicked simultaneously. That is the only way a fake Samsung fridge could mimic the frustration caused by a real one.

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Had a similar one the other day trying to log into Microsoft to play sea of thieves

It say "please click on the object that's similar to the following silhouette's"

It apperantly was th robo head or whatever that is

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

but to be fair, is it really a captcha if it doesn't give you nightmares?
