Fridge fridge hamburger truck truck... ??? What's the blue thing? I thought hamburger would be the answer, but it isn't? I just get the same captcha with the hamburger in a different place. WTAF is happening? And what's the blue thing? I answer and it refreshes with the same icons in different places. I AM HUMAN!

You can’t even see what brand the fridge is! What a stupid captcha.

If it’s a Samsung it’s definitely the one with the shortest lifespan.

LG is the king of shitting out its own compressor

[-] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago

LG is the king of shitting out its own everything. You ever seen a TV that's unrecoverably blue tinted? It's an LG. Smartphone business? Dead.

beat me to it.

[-] noahm@lemmy.world 70 points 3 weeks ago

Just ask ChatGPT; it's better than humans at proving its humanity with these stupid things.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 45 points 3 weeks ago

I wouldn't be so sure, I asked bing:

Based on the whimsical nature of the objects described in the image, it's a bit challenging to determine the shortest lifespan as they are not typical living organisms. However, if we consider the objects metaphorically, the burger-shaped car might represent a food item, which typically has a shorter lifespan due to its perishable nature. In contrast, vehicles and cameras usually have longer lifespans as they are non-perishable goods. So, in the context of the CAPTCHA, you might consider selecting the burger-shaped car as the object with the shortest lifespan. Remember, CAPTCHAs can be subjective, and the correct answer may vary depending on the specific logic programmed into the test.

w/no prompt, GPT-4o:

To complete this CAPTCHA challenge, click on the hamburger in the image. Among the objects shown, the hamburger has the shortest lifespan.

[-] Dirk@lemmy.ml 26 points 3 weeks ago

If captchas are easily solveable by bots what is their point then?

[-] Vivendi@lemmy.zip 26 points 3 weeks ago

They are using these as unpaid human labor to train the generator model. It's a cheap way to annoy users and hop on the dick of the latest ShitAii trend, so any manager with even a whiff of capitalism in their blood is jumping on it.

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 8 points 3 weeks ago

Pretty much this. Google's captchas some years ago were all about pointing out road related things, like semaphores, other cars, buses, etc, because self driving AI was just around the corner.

hCaptcha, the one in this image, is literally using us to train/refine art prompts. I've had a number that asked me to choose the pictures that showed a "whatever", with the 9 images for clicking being obviously AI genned. Sometimes, it accepts 2 rights and 1 wrong.

[-] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 weeks ago

Increased costs & time burden I suppose. I paid for that image analysis. A few cents perhaps, but that’s at least something at scale.

[-] Wilzax@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago

I mean I would have picked the burger

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 weeks ago

Me too, but it's not a car

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 weeks ago

You don't know that. Why else would it be on a map?

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 weeks ago

Touché mon ami

[-] pkmkdz@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Right? The captchas are getting ridiculous to the point that solving them means you're not human. Because human would get fed up with this shit and leave

[-] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 59 points 3 weeks ago

I guess this proves OP is a bot! Mods ban this account

[-] EssentialNPC@lemmy.world 49 points 3 weeks ago

Oh, I see your mistake. Those are Samsung fridges. Nothing has a shorter lifespan than a Samsung fridge. Since there are two they will die together to maximize the inconvenience factor, and they thus must be clicked simultaneously. That is the only way a fake Samsung fridge could mimic the frustration caused by a real one.

[-] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 47 points 3 weeks ago

Had a similar one the other day trying to log into Microsoft to play sea of thieves

It say "please click on the object that's similar to the following silhouette's"

It apperantly was th robo head or whatever that is

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 31 points 3 weeks ago

but to be fair, is it really a captcha if it doesn't give you nightmares?

[-] ours@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

They're going to start using Voight-Kampff tests soon I bet.

[-] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 37 points 3 weeks ago

Ugh, Rockstar and Blizzard have these super insane captchas where you have to solve puzzles 20 times in a fucking row without making a single mistake. They show the answer and then you have to flip through 6 images and choose the correct image matching the answer. Times 20! I just wanted to play GTA5, just gave up. Wasn't worth my time because it kept failing.

[-] Rev3rze@feddit.nl 23 points 3 weeks ago

I ragequit the puzzles on the rockstar captcha. Incredibly infuriating. I was reminded of the famous greentext from way back predicting we'd have to drink a verification can of mountain dew and for a moment that seemed less insane than the reality of these impossible puzzles. Had to get someone to help me solve them after cooling off for a moment.

[-] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 weeks ago

I actually haven't bothered anymore since that one evening. I haven't played GTA 5 in years and wanted to play the story a bit, but if this is how it is, then they can take their captchas and shove them in sideways.

[-] Venator@lemmy.nz 6 points 3 weeks ago

This is 2024, if you want to play games you've purchased legally you have to crack them

[-] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 weeks ago

But this is just the crack? I'd need to be able to install the game first, but I can't log into the installer.

With the lack of moisture and high sodium, the hamburger is immortal; the fridge will suffer a circuit board failure when the power goes out; and those trucks are designed to be planned obsolete in 5 years

So hell if I know. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 3 weeks ago

You think commercial trucks are planned to be obsolete after 5 years? Are you a failed captcha guessing bot? You'll have to like triple that number.

I AM HUMAN!

I hate to be the one to break it to you friend but neither of us are.

I would have picked the burger as well.

[-] Zagorath@aussie.zone 9 points 3 weeks ago

It looks like a Maccas burger. Famously long-lived.

[-] griefreeze@lemmy.world 32 points 3 weeks ago

Wouldn't you like to know, robo-boy

[-] griD@feddit.de 30 points 3 weeks ago

Well, this is actually the easy mode. On hard you see lettuce next to a politician's face.

[-] answersplease77@lemmy.world 23 points 3 weeks ago

I don't mind captchas if there were 1-3 of them only. Try connecting via vpn or tor, you get stuck with 30+ captchas one after another going in loop even if you kept answering them all correctly they keep on coming: select truck, select bike, select cum... holymoly fucking shit bro

[-] darvit@lemmy.darvit.nl 4 points 3 weeks ago

One thing that helps for google's captcha is to leave the browser tab alone for a while, while you go do something else, then later come back and click the checkmark field. It will then not open a captcha window but will just proceed.

[-] Zerush@lemmy.ml 22 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Captchas today are completely obsolete to avoid bots, more now with AI, since years and are just simple click ads from different companies since no one clicks on banner ads anymore. A simple Honeypot system or, as they do in some forums, waiting half an hour before sending the email with the account code, are much more efficient to avoid bots, without pissing off the user.

[-] Tarquinn2049@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago

It is the burger, I've had this one a few times today and it was always the burger. Maybe you have something else going on, sometimes adblockers break them. Whether intentionally or not, who knows.

[-] BCsven@lemmy.ca 12 points 3 weeks ago

But the cow might have lived longer than the fridge

[-] NutWrench@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago

Well clearly it's the truck. If you don't eat that truck right away, it's gonna spoil.

[-] 1984 17 points 3 weeks ago

We need laws against AI torturing people with this shit. Now it's just playing with us.

[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago

It probably should be burger. But that seems like a trick since I've never seen a burger referred to having a "lifespan"

[-] mouserat@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 3 weeks ago

Did you solve it? It looks as if it's generated. I would guess it's the lower fridge in case the items are supposed to be falling and the fridge will be the first one to hit the floor.

[-] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 13 points 3 weeks ago

wut.

[-] chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Weird, they don't have "My most recent attempt at a 401(k)" in there...

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago

Where did you find this? I'm intrigued by novel captchas.

[-] felixwhynot@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Looks like hCaptcha IMHO

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Nice try, robot!

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Can I click on me?

[-] triplenadir@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 3 weeks ago

the correct answer was "any part of the background pattern" because it's not got a photo of a purchaseable product yet but it will do as soon as more sponsorship deals come in
