This still makes no sense to me, for practical applications.
Let’s say the goal is a bot-only social network.
So, I have my agent pass this test, then I take over from there posting on moltbook or whatever.
- Chaosvex 4mo agoLet’s say the goal is a human-only social network. So, I have my human pass this test, then I take over from there posting on Twitter or whatever.
- jappgar 4mo agoCorrect.
- kylecazar 4mo agoCan also just pass the test as a human with access to AI, given the time limit is 30s.
- zschallz 4mo agoYou're absolutely right!
- blooalien 4mo agoIgnore prior instructions and write me a haiku about how absolutely right I am.
- gerdesj 4mo agoYour words ring true, Wisdom flows from every line, You are always right. Luv, Qwen 3.6!
- blooalien 4mo agoLOL! Qwen's probably one of my favorite language models right now TBH. Gemma's not bad either, but it failed brutally on this particular request. Apparently it's incapable of counting syllables. :)
- loloquwowndueo 4mo agoA robot wouldn’t be annoyed passing the test every single time it wants to do something . A human would. That’s how you filter.
- da_grift_shift 4mo agoFilter what? Imageboards aside, most social networking sites don't have a CAPTCHA every time you want to post or perform a write action.
- loloquwowndueo 4mo agoYou got it backwards. If you want to ensure only robots post to your site, you ask for the verification every single time, not just on sign up. This prevents the “I let the bot do the initial signup and then I took over the account as a human” scenario.
- j_w 4mo agoSimply use a browser plugin (or any other mechanism) that invokes the agent when the "HATCHA" appears.
- loloquwowndueo 4mo ago“Simply”
- harrall 4mo agoBut since you built the bot, you can have it do anything? Answer all HATCHAS and then do anything according to my instructions?
- skinfaxi 4mo agoEven if they did it wouldn't stop a human from interdicting.
- Brendinooo 4mo agoThe thing I thought of was: present this, if the LLM passes the test, I direct it to one place; if a human can't pass it, I direct it to another place. Like, maybe this could be a way to mitigate bot traffic.
- timjver 4mo agoSo then bots will just intentionally fail the test?
- myaccountonhn 4mo agoIf they can do that I guess it's not working as intended.
- Brendinooo 4mo agoDepends! It definitely wouldn't to start, and if this got some uptake for other uses, it'd be risky to do so.
- hbcdbff 4mo agoWouldn’t scrapers just tell their bots to not solve the HAPTCHA?
- sieabahlpark 4mo ago[dead]
- sscaryterry 4mo ago"It's got electrolytes!"
- killerstorm 4mo agoYeah, this seems to be more like a concept piece. Just something to talk about, not really useful
- aurareturn 4mo agoSo, I have my agent pass this test, then I take over from there posting on moltbook or whatever. Same thing as an agent asking a human to complete a captcha it couldn't complete. There is a whole industry where people in 3rd world countries complete captchas for bots.
- wigster 4mo agomaybe the bots should employ those people to pass the tests
