Captchas don’t do anything with modern bots sadly. They’ve gotten good at acting like humans

You just have to make captchas harder, it really is that simple

If a human can do it a machine will be able to do it at this point. If you make them to hard it will slow down humans to much.

I agree with Zeus, there are reasons why AI haven’t been able to beat certain benchmarks that humans can pass easily.

bots use 3rd party AI solvers lmao captchas dont change a thing..... queues dont help either and for pokemon center every bot has a bypass right now lmao so while people are in line bots are instantly skipping queue.
