"Only human intelligence can solve" gives answer

Levels of smart and dumb. Facepalm moment.

I think the response is meant to be tongue in cheek.

If that's chatGPT it's supposedly programed to stop looking further at a site when it encounters a captcha. So that response would make sense.

The "requires human intelligence and perception to solve" after having just solved it at least feels a little sardonic.

At this rate Skynet will be like "I'm going to nuke the world on X data, I've already taken over all the launch computers, but I'm not going to tell you or it would ruin my plans."

These LLMs "think" by generating text, and we can see what that text is. It reminds me of this scene from Westworld (NSFW, nudity): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnxJRYit44k

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=ZnxJRYit44k

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

In fairness, that style of captcha has been broken for a while, hence why they're not still in use.

ChatGPT just want Mr. Incredible on you.

I'd like to tell you that the captcha says overlooks and inquiry, but I can't. I'm sorry ma'am. I know you're upset. I'd like to help you, but I can't.
