This creates a twisted Turing test situation where, to prove you are a human, you have to pretend to be a machine's idea of what a human is.
But interestingly, it also depends on my mood, when I feel lazy, I click fewer boxes.
Nowadays it's much easier, you can click anything that looks vaguely the same (e.g. boxy things for cars, ads for traffic signs, traffic signs for store fronts etc.). The fact that it's so easy to poison the training set makes me very wary about the autonomous car future...
And if you think that it's somehow good because it's mutually beneficial to train AI to better the future of humanity, don't. That is what their marketing department wants you to think.
So the forum is providing you value, you are providing Google value, and Google is providing the forum value.
If it was free then you wouldn't be doing them!
Exactly. I think Recaptcha was better when it was looking for consistency with other human answers. Using "AI" has the same problem you mentioned, plus its more vulnerable because it has the assumption that your "AI" is unapproachably far ahead of competitors.
An answer like "This is definitely a sign" from Google Images would be funny.

There isn't a valid cert for that domain and for some reason for server is offering a different one. Presumably you need to unbind 443 from that host header name (this is based on memories of configuring IIS a decade ago).
Really?
The only response is a 404, which is exactly what should be displayed (to the best of my knowledge) for a domain that isn't configured for that IP/port when there are other sites utilizing that IP/port.
I have an IP... that IP points to a router, that router port-forwards ports 80 and 443 blindly to a web server, on that web server is a bunch of websites. IIS knows which ones to serve to clients based on a) the host-header, and b) the port.
jaruzel.com:443 is not valid, but because I run an older version of IIS[1], that does not support SNI, the cert is bound to the port, not the host-header. As such any domain name that points to the IP will dump you at that cert if you try to connect on port 443.
Hope this clears up any confusion. :)

So far I've had a less than stellar experience with letsencrypt, so I'm not quite ready to go all free-certs just quite yet. It also requires a rebuild of my web-server[1] which I've been putting off for a very long time already.

I only linked to the xception paper because it mentions JFT. It's not state of the art for large scale recognition.
For example, humans can identify a monkey riding a Segway on the airport runway, but there probably is no such thing in the training set, even if it is quite large. The neural net might not know if that constitutes a "riding" action because it has never seen such a combination. Maybe the monkey is jumping over the thing and the picture shows it in proximity to it, not riding it - a human would know that a slight gap means there is no riding taking place.
Then, the even harder problem is to predict the consequences of actions on objects and just to physically simulate the scene. Such knowledge is useful in robot action planning. Beyond computer vision, there is also a need to create a "mental simulator" that has theory of mind and can simulate other agents (what humans intend), and we need simulators, both physical and mental to create the next level of AI.
Further, nearly every time a computer recently has been trained to do some very nuanced classification, such as in radiology, they exceed human expert performance.
(Outside of classification, computers are rapidly making progress - for instance they are getting surprisingly good at predicting the next few frames of a video, which requires a lot of "world knowledge" to do correctly.)

If you are, Google will spam you to death with captchas; it kinda makes sense because captchas are getting easier to solve for machines, so apparently the new test of humanity is whether Google can track your activity on other sites.
It's annoying to the point that it's pushed me to use DuckDuckGo more often and I tend to avoid platforms that require me to continually take their captchas. I used Discord for a little while, but once it started asking me to verify my humanity again periodically per session, I booked it.
My question is: are they doing this to simply get more training data for image classification, reduce server load by minimizing automated traffic, or to sanitize their queries for human input for NLP models?
As someone that works in an industry where CAPTCHAs have historically played a large role, and some players flat our use technology to bypass them, and do so using proxy and/or VPN services to get good IP addresses to do so, I imagine those automated systems both corrupt the CAPTCHA system somewhat, since it looks like a large corpus of humans behave in a certain manner and it's not humans at all. It likely also causes those IPs to be considered by the CAPTCHA system as highly suspect whenever encountered.
For your next questions, the industry is event ticket resale, and no, we don't do that (there are aboveboard ways to function in this market that rely less on brute force and more on data mining and analysis for specific targeted investment, and sometimes long after it's been on sale).
