Honestly, we should be paid for every CAPTCHA we complete. The amount of free labour big tech steals from us is astounding.

There's some anti-CAPTCHA services where they do just that. You pay so you don't have to fill them out. I'm guessing they have a bunch of Indian guys just filling out CAPTCHAs.

Those would be Turks, not Indians.

But still not AI

Isn't that Amazon's Mechanical Turk?

Is that still a thing?

The payout for Mechanical Turk was abysmal. You'd make more money walking down the street and picking up the occasional quarter.

Yeah, it always seemed like flat-out exploitation to me.
