Computer puzzles are dead. AI is too good. Anomaly detection is the future. Track your users’ behaviour yourself, find outliers, handle them appropriately.

Repost of my comment above:

"Squiggly letters" captchas are still fine. There's a lot of FUD around AI & ML breaking them but I have yet to find an off-the-shelf tool that can break them; and so do the spammers. Sure, you might break them if you pay a team of computer vision scientists for a few months but that isn't profitable for spammers, so even though they are technically breakable, in practice they're still good enough to thwart spam & bruteforce.

The web has become fraudsters against bots, leaving humans excluded. The few humans left on the web are hugged to death by ad and tracking networks.

Sounds like some dystopian policy to undermine non-compliance in the general population.

Someone should write a fiction on it.
