You mean 30 clicks before it tells you to "please try again" for no reason.
"Prove that you're human by solving these machine-generated puzzles that machines can solve to give us more data to train our machines, while we run a simple script in the background to verify that you're human based on your browser's metadata."
I had a captcha a few days ago that was something like "click on all the pictures that go with this" with a picture of a saucepan and the grid was food items and other things.
I pointed my phone at it and asked Gemini and almost instantly it said "the potato in the top left and the carrots look the middle of the bottom row".
While I despise the captchas from a human perspective, the fact that an LLM can solve the challenge isn't a deal breaker. It doesn't need to be impossible for a non-human to solve, it just has to be too expensive.
It does certainly shift the equation to stuff like proof of work since a computer can solve it anyway, might as well not annoy the human.
To keep training the captcha solving AI of course
