I wish to solve CAPTCHA with bicycles, motorcycles etc. in a manner consistent with chaotic good alignment, benevolence, humanitarianism, etc. Shall I select squares that include riders/passengers but not also their conveyance? Was reminded of my uncertainty about this when reading this recent post by @Wilshire to the Technology community.
Nice try robot
CAPTCHAs are solved by consensus. Whatever the CAPTCHA thinks a bicycle is depends on what people before it selected. Sometimes it doesn’t know and just uses your answer to set up future CAPTCHAs. So you should be thinking: what would other people (or bots) select for the CAPTCHA.
Thank you for the insight. Having little understanding of the purposes of CAPTCHA beyond what is implied by the acronym, I would be concerned if what seems implied in this comment thread were actually true. Clearly there’s a bit of tongue-in-cheek, but it seems reasonable to me as a layman that some implementations could produce data usable to train autonomous driving systems. I realize it’s possible there’s no simple answer to my original question, and wouldn’t be the first time I’ve overthought something.
Is the rider a bicycle?

Reads ‘Redrum’ in ASCII. A reference to The Shining, I suppose. If there’s a joke it’s lost on me, sorry. Was kinda fun spending 10min decoding that, though :)
Nice, glad you enjoyed it.
I was just going off of what if OP was a bot trying to trick us into solving the captcha. Went with redrum cuz it’s evil, and more importantly, it was short. Didn’t want to spam a long comment for a silly joke.Op is totally a bot lol
I don’t include the rider. More confusing are stairs and crosswalks: where do they start and end? Often, there is no crosswalk on the picture but you have to select other road markings to continue. So it doesn’t really matter.
I always include the rider because the picture of the bike is on the street. A bike or motorcycle on a street is “everything I do not want to hit”.
Don’t they have an ai for that? Or is it something the billion dollar systems still can’t manage?
Lol, I would love it if someone coded a plugin that solved all of these captchas for me.
I could probably pay someone $50 a pop to solve it for me for the rest of my life and not reach even 1billion.
