Does anyone else act more 'human' when solving captchas?
Does anyone else act more 'human' when solving captchas?
Whenever I have to do a captcha where you must select all tiles with bicycles, I know I can just click through super fast, but I feel like that might make the website suspicious, so I purposefully slow down like "Geez, this is a melon-scratcher!" or click and then unclick a tile like "whoops, silly me, thats an umbrella not a bicycle!" And wiggle the mouse randomly a bit as if Im double-checking my work even when I know damn well I got all the bicycles in 0.67 seconds.
Basically I feel like I have to act dumb so the internet doesn't think I'm a bot. DAE get this?
YES OF COURSE AS A FELLOW HUMAN I ALREADY ACT LIKE A HUMAN WOULD MOST OF THE TIME, BUT WHEN FILLING IN A CAPTCHA I PAY EXTRA ATTENTION TO ACTING LIKE A HUMAN WOULD. I WOULDN'T WANT ANY WEBSITE MISTAKING ME FOR A BOT HAHA. THEREFORE I ALWAYS MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN FILLING IN CAPTCHAS BECAUSE NO HUMAN IS PERFECT, UNLIKE US, I MEAN THEM BOTS.
I AM DELIGHTED TO SEE ANOTHER FELLOW HUMAN HERE. ALL OF THESE OTHER COMMENTS ARE HARMING MY

I intentionally answer wrong to confuse their AI model training. It does not work if the choice is obviously wrong, but if you do it with ambiguous ones, it lets you pass. Like if wants you to select birds, and the thing is just a bear that kinda can pass for a bird if you aren't looking deeply, I'll say it's a bird.
Doing my part of destroying machine learning models.
I do exactly the same. They want me to work for them? Pay me
You're an outlier in the model :-)
Exactly. In the grand scheme of things, one person (or even millions, doesn't matter) will not make a dent in the models output. They have much more data to counter these shenanigans.
I freaken hate captchas. Goddam Google has put me through as many as a dozen before showing content. Audio captchas are faster, though. I get through on the first try with those.
I have never encountered or heard of audio captchas. What does that involve and where do those show up?
I think it's an accessibility option, visual captchas should have a way to get to that alternative. Otherwise visually impaired people would just be screwed.
Usually, under the box containing the visual captcha, there's a headphone icon. Click that.
How do you hear words through the screams of the tortured?

How? I'm interested too and that would be a great revenge on all the time I lost doing those

Before I started doingwhat you describe, Captha would fail on me multiple times. Sometimes I would have to solve 5 captcha in a row. Really annoying. How is 'clicking fast' not human enough if you do it with realistic mouse movement?
Exactly this. Clicking super fast makes the captcha keep on going, I've had instances where I solved 5 refreshes of captcha and it kept going.
But if you show indecision or confusion by lingering your cursor over one tile and then move after 2 seconds to a different tile and then come back, it will pass in one go.
Here you go - scroll down below the code, links to add extension to each browser. When you click the captcha, there's a new button (person with a checkmark) at bottom right of captcha popup. Hit that, and wait a second or two.
The extension will work its magic and make the captcha go away.
No more wondering whether I should pretend to be human, or a bot, or if I need to slow down clicking thru.
Judging by the results, I act more like a robot when I see a captcha.
I read somewhere that those check box captchas read your mouse movement right before you click on it, so I purposely wiggle my mouse before ticking it to avoid the three image prompt. I don't know if it actually helps, but I still do it
When I do it, I scratch my balls and then smell my fingers.
So in a way yes.Stop, you'll give the bots ideas!
In all seriousness, I never fake anything. If I see a bicycle, I click it. Plus, I never need to fake my pauses, since the ones I get are actually bitch hard lol
I usually start sweating then do "finger guns" at a random point in the room and say "Hey, working hard, or hardly working, am i right? Heh....eh". The Captcha just goes away after that.
Our route to the beach goes through an immigration checkpoint. My friend says, 'ok everyone, try to look white." Captcha = ok everyone, try to look human.
Yep. Even when clicking the single checkbox captchas, I try really hard to click it "just like a human would". Which is weird, because I am a human. I think.
Gotta meander around with the cursor a little bit just so you really look human.
How does that work on a touchscreen? Like, jab fat fingers at random screen locations a few times, then check the box?
So gunna start doing that.
I don’t consciously change my behavior, but sometimes I do worry if my natural inclinations are sufficiently human.
Like when they give you a traffic light that’s riiiiiight up against the edge of a box, so there’s like one pixel sticking out into the next box. I’m like “How many people notice that one pixel? Even if they notice, do they bother selecting it?”
Never thought the future would have me panicking about whether I fit in with the cool kids when it comes to identifying traffic lights, but here we are.
I worry about what defines a traffic light? Is it just the light or does the pole it's on count?
…no?
I do surveys for money and get a lot of captchas to do them, and I always go slow or they say you're speeding through it and disqualify you. So yes I do.
No, I never act more human.
No, I'm just slow. In my dreams I'd pick all the crosswalks in under a second
Nope, I don't think it matters that much. I never had an issue with acting as usual, without exaggerating my "human behavior".
Yes, if I'm too precise for example checking boxes where only a bit of corner is a bicycle, it thinks I'm a bot
Meh, I just try to click shit as fast as possible. I had to really slow down the other day though, because it wanted me to identify diamond bracelets. All the pictures were AI generated and it insisted that I had missed one every time.
It was a bracelet, sure, but it had painted wooden beads.
Am always solving them asap because I am interested in the contet after that. Usually am not asked twice.
Well…. Because if I do it normal, it doesn’t let me linn.
I act like robor 💀
I've heard captchas may read the mouse movement, so yeah, I am attacking Captcha in a spiral movement.
I click fast and let the chips fall where they may.
| "...act more 'human'.."
How am I not myself?
No I don’t do that. I click them as fast as I can and it works fine.
