Is it normal that the PSN website captchas are harder than Sony's first party game puzzles?

I just wanted to login to the playstation website and i'm getting professor layton ass puzzles you have to do this shit 10 times, if you fail ONCE you have to restart and do it 10 times again This shit is ridiculous man, it's a playstation account, not the keys to the nuclear codes

This is too funny to not share!

Some of the requests like listening to multiple songs and type in the number which changed instruments are genuinely difficult.

The 3D puzzles can be very tricky as well. Whose genius idea is this??

Hilarious is one word I wouldn’t use to describe a company offloading their AI training to users.

For what it’s worth, captchas have been used for training image recognition “AI” well before AI became such a hot topic buzzword. Especially in the automotive industries - it’s why a lot of captchas are like “please select images that have a street light” or “bicycles”.

Yep, Google did buy recaptcha after all

Yep I’ve started getting weird garbled almost images in captchas and it’s just gross that I have to add to an AI training data set just to use a service.

The original idea of recapcha was nice, we helped digitize books that had words the OCR couldn’t recognize.

Make sure you update your resume with your new skill of “AI Trainer”!

Good idea, I’ll put it right by “Time Person of the Year 2006”!

Couldn’t hurt. I list that I can “talk to animals”. I have no clue if the animals understand me, but that’s not the point.

I don’t think Arkose is one of the ones that trains AI they literally brag about being designed to waste humans time on their website. The purpose of them over other captchas is they’re not designed to detect robots, they’re designed to make it costly to pay someone to solve them because they take so much time

I actually these little minigame ones as opposed to the text captchas or the “Click all the photos of traffic lights.”

They certainly look more fun.
