      Could you use another bot to solve that bot’s test?

      We already have the reverse, where automated spam tools outsource to humans to beat the captchas: https://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/26/technology/26captcha.html

      They would have to make a captcha that only a select group of bots can solve

    Which of the following would you most prefer? A: a puppy, B: a pretty flower from your sweetie, or C: a large properly formatted data file?

    Which would you prefer:

    • A large, properly formatted data file.
    • A flower for your sweetie.
    • A puppy.

    Edit: didn’t see that someone else had already beat me to it!

      That’s too easy. It should ask you to unencrypt a message using a given public key.

      Maybe the other way: if it gets solved too fast, it is likely a bot?

        We’re keeping humans out, to let the bot empire thrive here. If you can mix base systems to do long division in 10 seconds on the internet, you deserve to be accepted into the bot technocracy

    I think they already do.

    The number of Captchas I’ve been failing tells me the AIs are creating Captchas only other AIs can solve.

      It’s that little sliver of tire on the “Bus” captcha that always gets me. Do I tag it? Or not?

      I seem to fail it either way.
