Especially if you get an entire string of them because somehow you didn’t do it right.

    I fix this problem using this extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/buster-captcha-solver/

    it uses AI to bypass it, way faster than any human can do it (requires a free api key from facebook to work reliably, unfortunately)

    what’s fun is that the garbled audio that recaptcha is using as a fallback for blind is completely incomprehensible for me, only the newest programs can understand it. Captchas are becoming “only bots can pass this check”

      At that point failing is the “correct” answer. It’s not necessarily looking at can you solve it, but how you solve it (and how fast is the mouse moving , is it moving in straight lines, did you fail six times and get frustrated? Did the time between tries change?)

      One would think, that if these sites and anywhere that applies Captcha at all, that if there were puzzles to solve to tell the difference between Bot or Human. That a human would have a likely chance to mess it up, whereas a Bot or AI are designed to do things flawlessly.

      I bet the creator of Captcha didn’t have the thought process to think about that.
