I've actually noticed this in some websites the past ~two months. It's neat to have a captcha that finally doesn't need slowly clicking images to pass through.

I fail hCaptcha a surprising number of times, and I'm sure it's actually doing that on purpose so we help it label more images for AI training.

It's like "select all flowers" and then you have 7 AI generated horses, and one AI generated flower. I pick the flower and "try again!" with a new set of images.

Yeah. Its better than reCaptcha - do I click those 3 pixels of the traffic signal it not!?! - but it's still an obstacle that dimenishes the experience.
