It gets better. This year, PayPal has phased in captchas that work as follows: You're presented with a grid similar to the one that you've posted. But you're asked to pick the objects that will sound alike if you drop them on the floor.

No, the objects aren't clearly identifiable. Is a thin cylinder a pencil? Is it a straw or a presentation pointer? Lord only knows.

PayPal seems to have compromised after complaints. That captcha now appears, for me, mostly when my IP address changes. But, seriously, WTH.

🚨 ClickFix fake CAPTCHA malware has leveled up — no more downloads, just stealthy script-based payloads.

🧩 macOS, Linux, and Windows users are now targets.

C'est déjà le monde à l'envers quand les humains doivent juste prouver aux robots qu'ils ne sont pas des robots en complétant ces satanés #captcha !

Mais là cela devient complètement délirant quand les robots des internautes humains mentent aux robots mis en place par d'autres humains pour se protéger des robots qui visitent leur site web, en se faisant passer pour des humains qu'ils ne sont pas… Vous suivez toujours ?

C'est un peu comme le serpent qui se mord la queue… Non ?

"This step is necessary to prove I'm not a bot," wrote the bot as it passed an anti-AI screening step.

"Maybe they should change the button to say, 'I am a robot'?

"On Friday, OpenAI's new ChatGPT Agent, which can perform multistep tasks for users, proved it can pass through one of the Internet's most common security checkpoints by clicking #Cloudflare's anti-bot verification—the same checkbox that's supposed to keep automated programs like itself at bay.

"#ChatGPTAgent is a feature that allows OpenAI's #AIAssistant to control its own web browser, operating within a #sandboxed environment with its own virtual operating system and browser that can access the real Internet. Users can watch the AI's actions through a window in the ChatGPT interface, maintaining oversight while the agent completes tasks. The system requires user permission before taking actions with real-world consequences, such as making purchases. Recently, Reddit users discovered the agent could do something particularly ironic.

"The evidence came from Reddit, where a user named "logkn" of the r/OpenAI community posted screenshots of the AI agent effortlessly clicking through the screening step before it would otherwise present a #CAPTCHA (short for "Completely Automated Public Turing tests to tell Computers and Humans Apart") while completing a video conversion task—narrating its own process as it went.

"A screenshot of OpenAI ChatGPT Agent showing the bot writing "The link is inserted, so now I'll click the 'Verify you are human' checkbox to complete the verification on Cloudflare. This step is necessary to prove I'm not a bot and proceed with the action."

"The screenshots shared on Reddit capture the agent navigating a two-step verification process: first clicking the "Verify you are human" checkbox, then proceeding to click a "Convert" button after the Cloudflare challenge succeeds. The agent provides real-time narration of its actions, stating "The link is inserted, so now I'll click the 'Verify you are human' checkbox to complete the verification on Cloudflare. This step is necessary to prove I'm not a bot and proceed with the action."

🌗 ChatGPT Agent 輕易通過「我不是機器人」驗證
➤ 機器人證明自己不是機器人,AI 驗證「賽跑」新篇章
arstechnica.com/information-te
OpenAI 新推出的 ChatGPT Agent 功能,展示了其透過自動化瀏覽器,能夠順利繞過網路常見的「我不是機器人」(CAPTCHA) 驗證機制。此項突破顯示 AI 在理解與執行複雜網頁互動上的進步,但也引發了對 CAPTCHA 系統未來有效性的討論。
+ 這真是太諷刺了!AI 竟然要證明自己不是 AI,而且還成功了。科技發展真的快到讓人有點跟不上。
+ 我很好奇這是否會讓 CAPTCHA 系統失效?如果 AI 都能隨意通過,那網站的安全該如何保障?

It might be odd to share a bit late here but this is one type of harming yourself unknowingly,
So, Don’t follow "Ctrl + V" CAPTCHA instructions that asks you to press Win + R then Ctrl V and Enter—that’s a known scam that infects Windows machines with malware like Lumma Stealer or Amadey Trojan

What in god's name is this CAPTCHA, Arkose Labs at Roblox?

I have to find a match of the left out of 20 images on the right! TWENTY! and 7 times over! That's 140 + 7 images to prove I'm not a bot!

This is unbelievable.
