  What I hate is the infuriating ones where you click a correct box, and it slowly disappears to be replaced with ANOTHER picture, which is probably also a fire hydrant, so you have to click that, too.

  "Pick the wrong shadow" is viscerally horrifying as a concept, but creatively fascinating

  &quot;Let&apos;s stop AI by making them read and at the same time train an AI to learn how to read&quot;<br>&quot;We no longer can use that anymore as somehow AI&apos;s have learned how to read&quot;

  I admire Simi’s ability to take a seemingly boring topic and make me invested for 17+ minutes

  Just gonna drop my favorite quote which I always get reminded of when CAPTCHAs come up: <br><br>&quot;There is a considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists.&quot; -Yosemite Park Ranger on why it&apos;s hard to design a bear-proof garbage can.

  In my opinion the most elegant one is the one where you simply click the &quot;I&apos;m not a robot&quot; checkbox and all the analysis/evaluation is done behind the curtains.

  I was once given a captcha that asked to select the images of parking meters. One of the images was a plastic mailbox that the captcha thought was a meter. &nbsp;I failed the captcha for knowing it wasn’t a meter.

  Right now I&apos;m regularly having to deal with a &quot;choose the similar shapes&quot; captcha. Problem is that I&apos;m color blind, and the red-on-purple hexagons and green-on-yellow triangles are almost impossible for me to pick out. Especially given the teeny-tiny window it gives you.

  You might be interested in Chinese CAPCHA too, they have evolved to rely on different uses of the Chinese language. For example:<br>1. As Chinese characters are basically square-y pictures, like 架, 奇, 雯 etc., they ask you to rotate a random character upright in the correct way. People who knows Chinese can do that effortlessly.<br>2. Different Chinese characters have the same or similar pronunciation, e.g. 忍, 人, 認, 刃, 仁, 韌, 飪... are all &quot;ren&quot; in mandarin, spoken in different tones, and all commonly used. So there is a CAPCHA for you to pick &quot;which word sounds the closest to the given word&quot;. And also, to match the word to the given pinyin (i.e. &quot;ren&quot;) and vice versa.<br>3. Three random, uncommon Chinese characters are given, and the distorted version on these three characters are hidden in a colourful picture. You are asked to click on each, according to the order they are listed in the question.

  My favorite kind of Captcha is the one where you click the verify button and then just wait for a few seconds and then the Captcha is just done with no effort whatsoever.
