I actually sort of became an expert at finding roofs with asbestos after it was found in ours

Weren't captchas designed to train LLMs?

They weren't invented to train LLMs.

But now they're used to help train self driving, that's why they're always about selecting traffic lights, cars, buses, or bikes.

Not LLMs (Large Language Models). ReCaptcha by Google was used to improve image and text recognition AI.

The text recognition part afaik was used to help develop tools to transcribe/digitize scanned books which was neat.

hCaptcha is annoying but works. Google reCaptcha always fucks me, because VPN+Mull.

Really, it sucks so much and it is literally not about making them right. I had a trick where making them wrong, waiting and then right would pass me instantly.

Now they just annoy me for no reason.

No website should use this crap
