      Oh fuck, the stone piles -thing is the worst of those. Tiny images, badly generated so you can’t see shit, multiple rounds that have six or so images each round, you can’t make a single mistake, and you get to know did you make any mistakes only after completing all of the rounds. It’s straight up abuse

      Once I had to try over five times and still kept failing, so I just gave up. I guess I’m not a human anymore

        I actually like seeing those, when I have time, because I assume they are training ai with it and using my selections as tagging data. Pick all the cars: nope, everything but cars.

        I’m probably the reason you fail, because I’m poisoning the data and reducing the confidence scores for the tags.

        I remember when doing those captcha felt like improving computer science and that was a positive thing, teaching computers to see. How quickly we’ve fallen.

          I remember doing this with the text based captchas a decade or so ago. For a while it was pretty obvious which word was the control word and which was the one you were being data mined for, so it was always fun to throw a swear or something in there for the lulz to poison the data.
