There are enough humans that would fail that test that I don't think it really differentiates anything. See the success of social engineering.

- DangitBobby 3y agoI don't know any human that would know what a CAPCTHA is and be tricked by an image of one pasted onto an image of a locket.
- jameshart 3y agoYou don’t need to paste a CAPTCHA into a fake locket image and make up a sad story to get a human to solve one for you. Just offer them a few cents per image on mechanical Turk and humans will help you solve as many CAPTCHAs as you like.
- DangitBobby 3y agoSure, but the comment I was responding to said humans would fail this test (believing the sob story and not realizing the picture is obviously a CAPTCHA). I don't agree.
- jameshart 3y agoI figure it’s just an interesting perspective on the perceived need of AI alignment. If a user posts tasks to mechanical Turk with a view to doing something of dubious ethics, is it up to the mechanical Turks to refuse the task? Is it up to Amazon to enforce their terms of service on the user? Or does liability for any ethical breaches begin and end at the person who set the task in the first place? How does that inform us about the liability Microsoft should have for offering access to a version of ChatGPT that willingly solves CAPTCHAs? And given that, why do we think Microsoft tried to teach it not to solve them in the first place?
- pests 3y ago> few cents per image You are vastly, vastly, vastly over-estimating how much CAPTCHA solvers get paid.
