Google develops computer vision accurate enough to solve its own CAPTCHAs

monopolyman

Google has cracked the CAPTCHA. In a paper published this week, Google researchers say that they've developed an algorithm that can accurately solve Google's own CAPTCHA puzzles — those obfuscated jumbles of letters and numbers you type in on websites to prove that you're human — with 99.8 percent accuracy

 

We all know how much of a pain CAPTCHAs can be, and it seems that Google stumbled upon a way for a computer to automatically solve them. I wonder if there is every going to be something similar released to the public, if so I can see it being very problematic for any site that uses CAPTCHAs to filter out bots. This also makes me wonder if we'll see a new, more secure, (and possibly even harder) form of filtering out bots emerge.

I'd be lying if I said I was higher than 60%

 

99.8% accuracy? Shit thats better than what I can do.

Does this mean we're going to get even more obnoxious CAPTCHAs?

 

If a human presented me with some of the letters that the CAPTCHA system does, I'd slap them in their face and tell them to go back to school.

Now make this publicly available. Captchas are so annoying because they aren't even readable half the time. This makes me resort to the audio Captchas which are ridiculous.
