Why does captcha want me to identify numbers and pictures for them when they clearly already know which images are the numbers and pictures?

Ive always wondered this myself. The image captchas though can be tricked

Also wondering this

they probably have a good estimate but want to increase certainty

>>53810875
It's part of some sort of machine learning program so they can know what is in a picture without having to look at it.

This.

I couldn't have said it any better.

I misplace letters just to fuck with the captcha, and it still accepts them.

What's the worst that could happen?

They offer you obviously wrong options for verification and sneak in some uncertain options for their own uses. I read up on common corner cases in computer vision algorithms [1] and noticed that you can always get those choices wrong (grass that looks like salad etc).

They comit a lot of mistakes and accept wrong pictures. So they don't know everything.

None of you remember what it was like here before captcha? Nothing but bot spam and virus links as far as the eye could see.

There's a movie called "Devin and Mac Go To High School". It's a stoner comedy starring Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa.


Devin (Khalifa's character) is a highschool valedictorian who struggles to write his graduation speech, and then Mac (Snoop) gives him some weed, sparking his mind.

It's technically a GET, although almost nobody has watched this movie.

So yeah, "Devin Green" actually stands for something.

gives him some weed, and for the first time in his life, he tries it. It sparks his mind. *

Damn, I made this sound like a summary straight outta IMDB or some movie magazine.
