The tech giant says the system only analyzes hand-movement points from a short video, does not record audio, and deletes the footage after verification.
It’s just a short video guys, there’s even no audio! And they pinky promise to delete it.
What a fucking shitshow that is. Like, honestly, I’m fine with regular captchas, even if they are the shitty ones. The newer (?) captchas that force you to do solve 5 bullshit “place this there” captchas are already reason enough for me to just leave the site. But if you force me to record a video of me throwing gang signs at the camera, probably several times again, because the movement was not correctly identified, I’m sure as fuck to never visit anything related to you ever again.
I also love the irony that Google fights people bots, while they are scraping the whole internet and investing into AI automation massively.
You just know that video is going to be turned into training data of some kind or another. I think visual and audio versions will be around forever, and I hear that you can enter inaccurate words in the audio prompt and still get through. Might as well train it funny if you must train it at all.
